Horsefeather | Cocktail Party

Horsefeather

The Horsefeather is an easy-drinking whiskey highball that is the pride and joy of bartenders in Lawrence, Kansas. A twist on the Horse’s Neck, it’s a staple at any bar in town.

Unlike the Horse’s Neck, the Horsefeather insists on whiskey and ginger ale (or ginger beer) – no brandy or sparkling water here. It also replaces the fussy lemon twist with a squeeze of fresh lemon, so it’s easier to make for a crowd.

Given its origins, an American whiskey is best here. We found this recipe on the PUNCH, where they recommend Rieger’s Kansas City Whiskey from nearby Kansas City, Missouri.

Ingredients

Instructions

Build in a tall, ice-filled glass in the order given. Squeeze the wedge of lemon over the drink, and toss it in for garnish. Serve with a straw.

Great drinks-great app

Great cocktail app. Very good list of drinks that actually are well made and tasty. I have used other apps that just were overloaded with tons of junk drinks. It feels like the creators of this app actually enjoyed making the drinks and decided which were good enough to add to the list. Really appreciate the perpetual updates drinks listing too. Hate paying for things more than once.
