Libation: The Manhattan
December 17th, 2009
It was frigid when I stepped outside, but I was feeling mellow, content. I had left Old Town Social after a few Manhattan’s, the mood still lingering. I was doing good, mid winter nothing but a rumor.
I had planned to be there for only a short while and needed something to give me a kick, something to stir the consciousness. Beer wouldn’t do it but a Manhattan would – a classic that gets the job done. The attractive waitress purred rye or bourbon? Wild Turkey Rye please.
