Mix the Oriental Cocktail (a Margarita + a Manhattan)

So you love the taste of Margaritas in the summer and can’t last the fall without a few Manhattans. Well, we’ve got just the remedy to combat your blahs — the Oriental cocktail. Perfect for year-round actually, the Oriental is somewhat a combo of ingredients in the Manhattan (whiskey and sweet vermouth) and the Margarita (triple sec and fresh lime juice). Shake it all up and that first sip will have you asking, “Where have you been all my life?” So try an Oriental today . . . you’ve got the ingredients already. We strive to bring you a delicious pairing with every cocktail we present, and this time we have worked overtime in our test kitchen to bring you something simple, bite-sized and delicious — sweet potato crisps. You can serve them two ways: in a bowl imbued with our sweet spices, or as an amuse bouche dolloped with spiced goat cheese, pomegranate pips, and little wisps of orange or tangelo zest. Your guests may never stop nibbling.
