COCONUT HIGHBALL

Fresh

Coconut water is a great way to quench your thirst – but did you also know that it’s delicious in a whisky highball? Unlike the heavier option of coconut cream or milk, coconut water adds tropical flavours while keeping the drink light and fresh. Make sure to add a squeeze of lime in this highball variation, as it cuts through the drink to add a fresh finish.

WHY IS IT CALLED A WHISKY HIGHBALL?

Wondering why it’s called a whisky highball? One belief was that ball was bartenders’ slang for glass, and this drink is best served in a tall glass. The other is to do with railroads, where at maximum train speed the ball indicator would be highest in the tank, and two short whistle blows followed by one long one were given – in the same way two shots of whisky would be followed by one long pour of soda in the drink.
