For a bolder flavor, consider using a higher-proof rye whiskey. Experiment with different brands of sweet vermouth to find your preferred taste profile. Carpano Antica Formula is a popular choice. Adjust the amount of bitters to your liking. Some prefer two dashes for a more pronounced bitter note. Garnish with a lemon twist instead of a cherry for a brighter, citrusy flavor. For a smoother cocktail, use filtered water to make your ice cubes.
