This tropical rendition of the classic Manhattan cocktail is made with rum instead of bourbon.
What to buy: Flor de Caña is a wonderful gold rum from Nicaragua that we think makes a delightfully dry Manhattan, perfect for those who don’t favor the sweetness of the regular version.
INGREDIENTS
- 1 1/2 ounces Flor de Caña rum
- 1/2 ounce sweet vermouth
- Dash of angostura bitters
- Maraschino cherry, for garnish
INSTRUCTIONS
- Combine the rum, vermouth, and bitters in a shaker with ice, and shake gently. Strain over a maraschino cherry in a martini glass.

I love Manhattans and I love Flor de Caña (one of the best valued rums out there) and I love this drink. A definite keeper. Gonna call it a Rumhattan though :)
