highball

The Highball, while technically referring to an entire family of drinks made with a spirit and a non-alcoholic mixer served in a tall glass with ice, is a name often given to a simple combination of whiskey and soda water. This refreshing drink first became popular in the UK in the late 19th or early 20th century, and is often referred to as a Scotch and Soda, although you can make it with any whiskey you please. Add a lemon twist or lemon wedge for a touch of zesty citrus, and you're done—the Highball is just as easy to make as it is to drink.
