• Fill a mixing glass with ice cubes.
• Add 2 ounces of Old Overholt Rye Whiskey, 1 ounce of sweet vermouth, and 2 dashes of Angostura bitters to the glass.
• Stir the mixture gently with a bar spoon for about 30 seconds.
• Strain the cocktail into a chilled glass.
• (Optional) Garnish with a maraschino cherry for an elegant touch. Enjoy!

NOTES

• - Use fresh ingredients to enhance the flavors of your cocktail, especially fresh sweet vermouth and high-quality whiskey.
• - Chill your cocktail glass in the freezer for a few minutes before serving to keep your drink cold and improve the experience.
• - If you prefer a sweeter cocktail, adjust the amount of sweet vermouth to taste. Start with the recommended amount and add more if desired.
• - Stir the cocktail gently rather than shaking it. Stirring blends the ingredients smoothly without introducing too much air, ensuring a balanced drink.
