Product Information

Initially, the most common highball was made with Scotch whisky and carbonated water, [3] known simply as a ' Scotch and soda'. The popularity of Scotch & Soda was also helped by the carbonisation of water being heavily industrialised in the 1830s. This also saw the start of the American soda craze with John Matthews of New York and John Lippincott of Philadelphia both starting to manufacture soda fountains in 1832. By the 1850s flavoured bottled carbonated water started to appear with ginger ale first bottled in Ireland. Ginger ale or ginger beer: If you prefer more balanced drinks like the Whiskey Sour, try this drink with ginger ale or ginger beer. It gives it more sweet notes to balance out the dry, spicy whiskey.

The term highball appears to have emerged during the 1890s with the first known written mention appearing in a play, My Friend From India by Ha Du Souchet in 1894 with a character called Erastus saying "Talking about drinks, I think I'll have one. (enter Jennings) Jennings, bring me a high ball of whiskey."Method: Shake first five ingredients and strain into a chilled glass, fill with ice and top off with Schweppes 1783 Muscovado. Tommy Dewar of the famous scotch whisky brand also laid claim to inventing the highball in an article published in 1905 in the Eveningstatesmen were he claimed to have discovered the "highball" 14 years earlier. "It came about in this way," he said today. "I was walking along Broadway with several friends when one of them asked me to go into a saloon and have a 'ball'. As I was in that humour myself I consented. When we made our wants known to the bartender, he places before us small whiskey glasses. "'Beastly small glasses', remarked my friend. "I suggested to the bartender that he give us high glasses so that my companion could have a 'highball', and thus he satisfied. He found the right kind of glasses and we had what I have been told was the first scotch 'highball'." The railroad connection

The term 'highball' may have come from the American railroads (which developed rapidly between 1828 and 1873) but may also have English and/or Irish roots with the term "ball" being a common term for a glass of whiskey in Ireland and more specifically in golf club bars in late 19th century England, a term for a whisky served in a high glass.
