When made right, the whiskey ginger is more than just a drink; it's a testament to the beauty of simplicity and a tribute to the time-honoured tradition of fine mixology. The smoky richness of whiskey, the zesty sparkle of ginger ale and the crisp note of lime come together in a symphony of flavours.
Step 01
Step 02
Pour the whiskey into the highball glass.
Step 03
Slowly add ginger ale to the glass. As you pour, aim to maintain a consistent stream, allowing the ginger ale to mix with the whiskey while preserving its effervescence.
Step 04
Stir the drink gently with a cocktail stirrer or a long spoon. The aim is to combine the whiskey and ginger ale without losing the fizz.
Step 05
Cut a slice of lime and squeeze it gently over the glass to add a touch of citrus brightness to the drink. Drop the squeezed lime into the glass.
Step 06
Serve and enjoy.
