The Brooklyn Cocktail, A Failed Cocktail Design?

The Brooklyn cocktail is the ugly step child of the Manhattan cocktail. Historically, the Brooklyn cocktail never caught on and there were around five publicized recipes that just didn’t hit it off with the customers. People could never find the love of the brooklyn like they did with the Manhattan and even the Bronx cocktail.

We give the Brooklyn cocktail a go with the first time and see how that goes! It has a lot in common with the other cocktails in this segment of classics and the best part of the tasting is getting a chance to see one of the cocktails that battled to get manhattan style status in the history books.

One of the stand out qualities of this cocktail is the maraschino liqueur, and it gives you a reason to utilize your bottle of maraschino that may be collecting dust.
