Difficulty Easy

Technique Built

This may seem like a very simple libation but the Highball Mizuwari is a Japanese cocktail that’s all about the Whisky—and the ritual involved. Even before you add the Soda Water, this is a drink that is all about the stirs, so make sure you count them at each stage.
