Black Sugar Manhattan


Several months ago wife was given a small bottle of Kuro Mitsu from Okinawa, a syrup made from unrefined black sugar. She didn't like the flavor, but I found it intriguing. Now that I am understanding flavor components better, I decided to try some in a cocktail.

1 1/2 oz. Four Roses Yellow label Bourbon
1/2  oz. Dolin Vermouth Rouge
1 tbsp Okinawan black sugar syrup
1 dash Regan's #6 Orange Bitters

The cocktail came out quite good.
