4. 1 OBJECTIVE 1: Discuss what is Manhattan and Cosmopolitan, and each origin

PRE DINNER COCKTAIL

Is an alcoholic beverage usually served before a meal to stimulate the appetite, and is therefore usually
dry rather than sweet.

 Manhattan- is a cocktail made with whiskey, sweet

vermouth, and bitters. While rye is the traditional whiskey
of choice, other commonly used whiskies
include Canadian whisky, bourbon, blended whiskey,
and Tennessee whiskey. The cocktail is usually stirred
then strained into a cocktail glass and garnished
traditionally with a maraschino cherry. A Manhattan may
also be served on the rocks in a lowball glass.
The whiskey-based Manhattan is one of five cocktails named
for a New York City borough. It is closely related to the Brooklyn
cocktail, which uses dry vermouth and Maraschino liqueur in
place of the Manhattan's sweet vermouth, and Amer Picon in
place of the Manhattan's angostura bitters.

HISTORY
Popular history suggests that the drink originated at the Manhattan Club in New York City in the mid-1870s,
where it was invented by Dr. Iain Marshall for a banquet hosted by Jennie Jerome (Lady Randolph
Churchill, mother of Winston) in honor of presidential candidate Samuel J. Tilden. The success of the
banquet made the drink fashionable, later prompting several people to request the drink by referring to the
name of the club where it originated—"the Manhattan cocktail". However, Lady Randolph was in France at
the time and pregnant, so the story is likely a fiction.
However, there are prior references to various similar cocktail recipes called "Manhattan" and served in
the Manhattan area. By one account it was invented in the 1860s by a bartender named Black at a bar
on Broadway near Houston Street.
The original "Manhattan cocktail" was a mix of "American Whiskey, Italian Vermouth, and Angostura
bitters". During Prohibition (1920–1933) Canadian whisky was primarily used because it was available.
An early record of the cocktail can be found in William Schmidt's The Flowing Bowl, published in 1891. In it,
he details a drink containing 2 dashes of gum (gomme syrup), 2 dashes of bitters, 1 dash of absinthe,
2
⁄3 portion of whiskey, and 1⁄3 portion of vermouth.

COSMOPOLITAN- A cosmopolitan, or informally

a cosmo, is a cocktail made with vodka, triple
sec, cranberry juice, and freshly squeezed or
sweetened lime juice.

HISTORY
The International Bartenders Association recipe is
based on vodka citron, lemon-flavored vodka. The
cosmopolitan is a relative of cranberry coolers like
the Cape Codder. Though often presented far
differently, the cosmopolitan also bears a likeness in
composition to the kamikaze cocktail.
The origin of the cosmopolitan is disputed
