Method

How to make Grappa & Ginger Highball

Follow the 6 reviewed catalog steps in order.

  1. 01

    Pre-chill one clear slim highball glass, prepare clean cubed serving ice, and cut exactly one small thin lime wedge.

  2. 02

    Fill the chilled highball glass with fresh cubed ice, leaving enough room for the measured liquids.

  3. 03

    Pour 30 ml aromatic grappa directly over the ice and add six drops vanilla bitters.

  4. 04

    Top slowly with 90 ml cold ginger ale so the natural carbonation remains lively.

  5. 05

    Give the drink one brief gentle stir from bottom to top without knocking out the bubbles.

  6. 06

    Squeeze the single compact lime wedge over the drink, drop it just inside at the rim, and serve without another garnish.
