When the weather warms up and the days get longer, the kind of drink we reach for changes too.
Summer calls for something light, refreshing, and easy — and that’s where the West Cork Irish Whiskey highball really comes into its own.
Cocktails have their place. They’re fun, flavourful, and sometimes a bit of a treat. But when you’re outside with friends, enjoying the sunshine, the idea of shaking, muddling, and measuring ingredients might not be all that appealing.
That’s why we keep it simple — with the West Cork Whiskey Highball.
Why Keep It Simple?
Cocktails can be a great experience, but in the heat, they can feel a bit heavy — and they usually come with a lot of clean-up.
The West Cork Highball is straightforward:
- West Cork Bourbon Cask Irish Whiskey
- Tonic water
- A few dashes of bitters
- A slice of orange
That’s it. No shaking, no muddling, no multi-step recipes.
Just pour, ice, top, garnish, and enjoy….
The highball delivers:
- Lower ABV: Thanks to the tonic, it’s light and perfect for pacing yourself during long afternoons.
- Naturally refreshing: The bubbles lift the whiskey’s notes while the bitters and orange bring brightness without overwhelming the palate.
- Clean finish: No syrupy aftertaste, no sugar crash, just a crisp, citrus-kissed whiskey fizz.
