The Martini and the Manhattan are two of the bedrock drinks that hold up the entire world of cocktails.

While both have their own lore, mythology and fans, they in fact may be essentially the same drink. On this episode of the award-winning podcast Life Behind Bars, co-hosts David Wondrich and Noah Rothbaum discuss the origins of both drinks and how they evolved into distinct recipes.

So mix yourself a Manhattan or a Martini and listen to this episode of Life Behind Bars. Cheers!
