Greenpoint
Cocktails & Apéritifs, Vya Sweet
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.

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.
