Japanese Whisky Highball with Lemon Peel

What you need

• 8 ice cubes, large and hard
• 1 piece lemon peel, a wide strip, pith trimmed thin

Method

Restated from the original video

1. 1

   Fill a tall glass to the top with ice cubes.

2. 2

   Pour in the whisky and stir for about 10 seconds, until the glass is frosty.

3. 3

   Tilt the glass and pour the club soda slowly down the inside wall so the bubbles stay lively.

4. 4

   Lift the ice once from the bottom with a spoon, one gentle turn, and stop. More stirring flattens the drink.

5. 5

   Twist the lemon peel over the glass to release its aroma, wipe it around the rim, then drop it in. Drink right away.
