Expanded Information:

Manhattan LegendsOne legend holds that Manhattan was invented by Churchill's mother, Jennie, who was born in the United States and was a well-known figure in New York City social circles.

In 1874, she served the drink to guests at a party at the Manhattan Club for the presidential candidate she supported. And some historians have pointed out that the claim is untrue because at the time, Churchill's mother was in England giving birth to her child, Churchill.

Another theory is that in 1874, to congratulate Samuel JTilden, who had just been elected governor of New York, socialite Jenny Jerome held a reception at New York's Manhattan Club.

She wanted to make a rather special drink for the special occasion and told the bartender so. The bartender mixed whiskey, vermouth and a dash of bitters, and the drink overwhelmed everyone at the party. Jenny Jerome was so pleased that she dubbed the new drink "The Manhattan".

In the western United States, it is believed to have been served to a wounded gunman found in a bar in Maryland. Using Scotch whiskey as a base, the drink became "Rob Roy," the name of a Scottish bandit.

There are also claims that the Manhattan cocktail was invented by a bartender named Black in 1860 and that the drink was very popular at the time.
