THE SULLY, by Dale DeGroff
“A cocktail celebrating the combination of skill, luck and physics.”
Ingredients: 1 1/2 ounces rye whiskey (Keens used Sazerac) 1 1/2 ounces Martini & Rossi sweet vermouth A dash of Angostura bitters, “because life is bittersweet … luckily in this case more sweet than bitter” A float of the best Champagne you can afford A Manhattan cherry
Preparation: “Stir the rye, sweet vermouth and bitters with ice to chill, and strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Top carefully with the Champagne, ensuring that is floats on top of the cocktail. Drink the Champagne off the top of the drink first, and then slide a cherry into the bottom of the glass … down she goes.”
