Dry-vermouth Southern Comfort Manhattan variation

- the three listed ingredients, plus cracked ice and a cherry inherited through the instruction to mix as an ordinary Manhattan
- 1 jigger (1½ oz) Southern Comfort
- Dash of Angostura bitters (optional)
Directions

Timing: until thoroughly chilled
Temperature: cracked ice; thoroughly chilled
