Wow. Unexpectedly complex and a pleasure to drink.

I agree with Florian. Slightly too sweet for my taste, but otherwise a great cocktail. Next time I’m going to try halving the agave.

Not quite sure what the Campari is trying to achieve here. Take it out and use some margarita bitters and you have a grapefruit margarita that’s simply better in my opinion.

I like the balance here. It doesn’t taste “spicy” per se. Just a long lingering heat in the mouth. A bit moreish because the finish makes you want to have another sip of the cold manhattan, only for the process to repeat. Finished mine way too fast as a result. Overall a fine way to mix up your manhattans for variety without compromising on its essence in any way. Makes it a bit more “manly” as well for those guests that let that prevent them from enjoying a classic manhattan.
