Vieux Carré Cocktail
A Sweet Manhattan served on-the-rocks with added herbal complexity and an all-important splash and dash or two of New Orleans bitters. Driven by comments...

I had this in the ‘quite nice’ category until I had it with Martell blue Swift, which really kicked up the flavour. Now it’s a definite favourite. Blue Swift is quite spicy and heavier on the oaking than a lot of cognac. And with Cocchi storico or similar and a really fresh lemon twist it balances the benedictine (in my opinion) and is packed with flavour. Curious to know how was you get on cheers!
