Terrible recipe for a Manhattan, as you NEVER shake bourbon. It bruises the flavor, loses the profile of the bourbon itself and turns your cocktail into a watery mess. Second, a good Manhattan will use a ratio of bourbon to sweet vermouth at either 3:1 or 4:1 depending on your preference for sweetness. This recipe promotes a 6:1 ratio, which completely changes the flavor profile. I will agree with her addition of the cherry! Don't ever serve a guest (or yourself) a Manhattan without the requisite cherry.
