Monte Carlo Recipe
The Monte Carlo is the sophisticated “cousin” to the Manhattan. It is a spirit forward cocktail which is similar to the Manhattan but it uses Bénédictine (a herbal liqueur) instead of Sweet Vermouth. It is smoother, slightly honeyed, and more herbal than a traditional Manhattan. Our Monte Carlo recipe is a delicious and easy to make drink. If you like Old Fashioneds, this is a must try!
