Walnut Fig Manhattan

I know that Bond is more of a martini guy, but he also drinks scotch, and I’ve always pegged Q as more of a Manhattan guy.  This recipe takes a normal Manhattan (already good) and adds some lovely rich Fall flavors that make it perfect for this time of year:

3 pts bourbon

1 pt sweet Vermouth

1 pt ice water

1 pt Fig Liqueur (Figcello)

1 pt Walnut Liqueur

Splash of bitters (Angostura or others)

Shake with ice and pour in glass.  Garnish with a skewer of Morello Cherries in Kirsch.
