The name of this cocktail really doesn’t offer much of a hint for what it is, but it does hint at how you’ll feel. Essentially a variation of an Old Fashioned, this cocktail replaces sugar with Maraschino Liqueur to give it a drier, earthy flavor. With the perfect amount of sweetness, this classic cocktail gives the Manhattan a run for its money.
