Wonderful chocolate manhattan for Easter. A new favourite! We used rye.

I can't believe I haven't had this one before, or maybe I did years ago and didn't comment. But, Simon, this is TOO delicious! What have you done? 😁

Thanks, Kevin. I must revisit. Seems appropriate Manhattan for an Easter weekend.

Used Antica and my new Sirene Chocolate liqueur from Sheringham distillery in Victoria, B.C., and Scrappy's chocolate bitters. Dang, this is an excellent drink. It's like a decadent after-dinner drink but not overly sweet and still a Manhattan at heart.

Used Antica and enjoyed with 90% cocoa dark chocolate. At first seemed a bit too dry but more balanced sip by sip. Thanks for this variation.

Having this as our aperitif on Easter. Wonderful hints of cocoa and cherry. Light herbal and smoky taste from the bourbon. Wonderful. Had with prosciutto and gruyere in puff pastry
Thanks Simon, you added to our Easter celebration.

Sipping this right now for aperitif, made skewers with 3 Amarena cherries. Used Martini Rubino for the Vermouth part, and used Aztec choc bitters as that’s the only one I have of this type. All in all rather delicious and not necessarily just for after dinner. In fact wanted to make a Widow’s Kiss but it was lashing down with rain so getting mint leaves from the pot outside was not an option, says husband lol
