Rye Cocktails: Classic, Spirit-Forward Drinks
Spicy, peppery, and a little bolder than its bourbon cousin, rye is the whiskey that gives classic cocktails their backbone. This is your go-to collection of rye cocktails, the stirred, spirit-forward drinks that let rye's dry, snappy character really shine. Stir up a proper old fashioned or a rich, classic Manhattan, where rye's bite cuts through the sweet vermouth beautifully.
Rye brings a drier, more assertive flavor than other whiskeys, which is exactly why it works so well in these timeless, quietly sophisticated drinks. If you prefer something smoother and sweeter, try our bourbon cocktails. We're just getting started here, so this collection is growing. You'll find the classics done properly for now, with plenty more rye cocktails, including a few of our own twists, on the way. In the meantime, explore our full lineup of whiskey cocktails for even more ways to pour.
