Named after the Greenpoint neighborhood of Brooklyn, this Manhattan cocktail variation was created in 2005 by Michael McIlroy. In this perfectly balanced cocktail, Yellow Chartreuse and Vya Sweet Vermouth create a delicate quality that elevates both the spicy and dry characteristics of the rye.
Ingredients:
2 oz. Straight rye whiskey
1 oz. Vya Sweet Vermouth
1 tsp Yellow Chartreuse
1 dash Angostura Bitters
Garnish: Lemon twist
Preparation:
Combine all ingredients into a mixing glass with ice. Stir and pour into a rocks glass. Twist a lemon peel over the glass and rub over the rim. Serve.
