We get a lot of recipes from liquor companies, but few are any good. Most of their so-called signature drinks wind up being too heavy handed with the product they are pushing. A notable exception are the fine folks at St. Germain, who consistently craft good drinks made with the elderflower liqueur.
Case in point is the Paris Manhattan, a twist on the classic made with St. Germain, which actually enhances the flavor of the bourbon. The 'Parisian' touch is light and flirty without being too frou frou. We'd raise a glass to the creator of the drink, if we knew who he or she is...
Paris Manhattan
