Highball
Every aspiring professional bartender should put this easy highball on their list of drinks to memorize. A Canadian whiskey works really well in this drink and while some may use soda water, ginger ale is most commonly used as the mixer. This mixed drink should not be confused with the class of drinks called "highballs." Those include most tall drinks with a base spirit and one or two non-alcoholic mixers. Not to be too confusing, a Highball is a "highball."

Ingredients:

Preparation:

  1. Fill a highball glass with ice.
  2. Pour the whiskey into the glass.
  3. Top with ginger ale.

AWSOME DRINK!, Member stevenp512

This is excellent! I was not a big fan of whiskey to begin with but this is excellent! My new drink for the summer! I always find a certain drink and stick with it. It is my personality! HAHA Last summer was a Gin and Tonic! Those are excellent as well! Rangpur gin is the best I recomend it!
