Quick Sip - Mo-Hattan on the Roccas


AOL News blogger and bon vivant Mo Rocca wanted to know what his poison oughta be.



I'm suggesting a...

Mo-Hattan on the Roccas

2 oz Sazerac rye whiskey
1/4 oz dry Vya vermouth
1/4 oz sweet Vya vermouth
Regan's Orange Bitters
Hickory-smoked, rye-soaked cherries*

Stir rye, sweet and dry vermouth, a dash of bitters, and a dash of the cherry rye* in an old-fashioned glass with ice and 2-3 smoked, rye-soaked cherries. Sip and enjoy, or dash in the face of the next person who ridicules your drink order.

*I've discussed my cherry-smoking penchant before. Just fire up a batch of 'em, and pack in a mason jar with rye whiskey for a week or two.
