History

Strong flavours combine harmoniously in this Manhattan variation, substituting an amaro for bitters.

Adapted from a recipe originally served straight-up by Abigail Deirdre Gullo at SoBou, New Orleans, USA. This drink was inspired by the Red Hook, which is part of a series of Manhattan-style cocktails named after New York City districts.
