What it tastes like
It smells of lemon and lime peel and it drinks cool and easy.
The technique
Built in the glass. Ice goes into the serving glass, the ingredients go on top, and you stir once if at all. Anything carbonated goes in LAST and never gets stirred; every turn of the spoon costs you bubbles. Fill the glass to the rim with ice: less ice melts faster, not slower.
Glass and ice
A tall, narrow highball. The narrowness does real work — less surface area means the carbonation lasts longer and the ice melts more slowly.
Ingredient notes and substitutes
- Lemonade
- This means fizzy lemonade — lemon soda, not still. If you use homemade lemonade, the fizz has to come from sparkling water, or the drink falls flat.
The Story
Named after the legendary American golfer who famously ordered it.
