The Top 20 Finalists in the Great Jones Manhattan Competition | Eater

"Bridget Ramsey’s cocktail Midnight Rhapsody is a refined twist on the classic Manhattan. This bold, spirit-forward drink combines Great Jones Empire Rye with apple-infused Malmsey Madeira, Angostura bitters, and molasses syrup, creating a rich and complex profile. Finished with a pickled apple ball, the drink celebrates New York’s festive cocktail scene, letting each seasonal ingredient shine. “Midnight Rhapsody is a cocktail that harnesses this tenacity of flavor to pay homage to the jazz and social clubs of Manhattan in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, with the rye taking center stage,” Ramsey says." - Julia Gómez Kramer
