The Story Behind The Gentlemen’s Date
Developed by the team at New York’s Yoon Haeundae Galbi, the Gentlemen’s Date is a riff on the classic Manhattan, best enjoyed on cold nights around the holidays. The cocktail takes on a more seasonal profile than the Manhattan thanks to the addition of cinnamon for an extra spice-forward kick. With a bit of jujube syrup in the mix — which adds a crisp, refreshing flavor similar to that of red apples — the cocktail takes on a slightly sweet edge that perfectly balances some of its more bitter ingredients.
