  • A perfect Manhattan variant!
  • MC liked — ★★★★
  • Halfway between a negroni and a Manhattan. — ★★★★
  • Likable Manhattan variant, with a cherry-cola cast.
  • A solid variation on the classic Manhatten. The Averna and Campari add a nice subtle bitterness and complexity that nicely compliments the rye.

Curated to add attribution, edit history to avoid copyright issues, and rewrite instructions to KC style guidelines. While this cocktail is not that different from other amaro-based Manhattan variations, it seems to be widely enough known to warrant inclusion in Kindred Cocktails. Thanks for the submission.
