Preakness Cocktail

Name: Preakness Cocktail
Prep time: 5 min
Yield: 1 serving
Cuisine: Cocktail
Ingredients: 1.5 oz Blended Whiskey; 0.75 oz Sweet Vermouth; 0.5 tsp Bénédictine® Herbal Liqueur; 1 dash Aromatic Bitters

Warm, spirit-forward whiskey lifted by the sweet, herbal honeyed notes of Bénédictine and rounded by sweet vermouth; a dash of aromatic bitters and a lemon twist add bright aromatic lift. It pours a clear amber and is an elegant, slightly sweeter Manhattan-style cocktail worth ordering if you like complex, stirred classics with an herbal edge.
