Equipment

  • Highball glass
  • Ice cubes
  • Shot glass or jigger
  • Bar spoon
  • Lime zester (optional)

Ingredients
  

  • 2 oz 60 ml of your preferred whiskey (bourbon, rye, or even cognac)
  • 4-6 oz 120-180 ml of ginger ale
  • Ice cubes
  • Lime wedge or twist for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Fill a Highball Glass with Ice: Start by filling a highball glass with ice cubes. The amount of ice you use can be adjusted based on how cold you like your drink to be.
  • Pour in the Whiskey: Measure out 2 oz of whiskey using a shot glass or jigger, and pour it over the ice.
  • Add Ginger Ale: Slowly add 4-6 oz of ginger ale to the glass. The slower you pour, the less fizz you’ll lose.
  • Stir Gently: Use a bar spoon to gently stir the mixture, ensuring the whiskey and ginger ale are well combined.
  • Garnish: Add a lime wedge or twist for a burst of citrus that perfectly complements the ginger spice.
  • Serve Immediately: Enjoy your Ginger Ale Highball cocktail fresh and bubbly!
