Default Re: Great Cocktails

Well, I know a lot of [censored] about good cocktails, but I think a better question is how good is your bartender, and how well-stocked is the bar? Barring that, a good cocktail you should be able to get at any self-respecting bar is a Manhattan. 2 oz bourbon or rye, 0.5-1 oz sweet vermouth, depending on taste, and a dash of bitters served straight up. Garnish w/ a cherry. I don't know why some people default to serving this on the rocks, but I don't think it's as good that way.
