Notes

Variations: if you want something smoother, try using scotch whisky instead of bourbon. Use a lemon peel instead of orange peel if you want something fresher. The traditional Manhattan garnish is a brandied cherry. Feel free to use, but it's not our preference (also, who still has that on hand these days?).
