What is Manhattan?

Iain Marshall invented this drink for a banquet hosted by Jennie Jerome at the Manhattan Club in New York City in the mid-1870s. As a result of the success of the banquet, it became fashionable, and several people requested the drink by referring to the club's name as the Manhattan cocktail.
