Harvard (Cognac Manhattan)

A Luxurious Take on the Manhattan

The Harvard, also known as the Cognac Manhattan, is a luxurious twist on the classic Manhattan, replacing whiskey with Martell Blue Swift. This sophisticated cocktail is smooth, rich, and balanced, with hints of sweetness from the vermouth and depth from the bitters.
