The earliest known Brooklyn recipe is this from Jack's Manual circa 1908. The dry vermouth variation won out though.


This is a great riff of the Manhattan, to me the best cocktail in the world. I‘ve had it many times, and the ultimate combination is Sazerac Rye, Cinzano 1757, Amer Picon and Maraska Maraschino from Croatia. So balanced and elegant!
