NEW YORK HIGHBALL
This classy Dewar's highball encapsulates the rich and exciting journey of life in the Big Apple with its vivid colours. The two-toned aesthetics of the drink accentuate the allure of this highball, which is served with Dewar's whisky collins on the bottom and topped with dark port wine.
Ingredients:
60ml DEWAR'S 12YO whisky
25ml fresh lemon juice
25ml sugar syrup (1:1 sugar to water by weight)
45ml chilled soda water
Steps:
Add DEWAR'S 12YO whisky, lemon juice, and sugar syrup to a chilled highball glass with ice and stir to chill
Top off with 45ml of chilled soda water
Take a spoon and put it over the drink with the bottom just touching the liquid and pour port wine into the spoon so it floats on the top of the drink
Garnish with a lemon or orange twist
THE JOHN COLLINS

25ml fresh lemon juice
25ml sugar syrup (1:1 sugar to water by weight)
90ml chilled soda water
