Highland Orchard Fizz
AI-generatedEasyHighball
A misty Scottish meadow bottled in a glass — smoky, crisp, and alive with garden herbs.
Ingredients
- ◆1 1/2 oz scotch whisky
- ◆2 oz apple juice
- ◆1/2 oz honey syrup
- ◆3/4 oz lemon juice
- ◆2 oz sparkling water
- ◆6 leaves mint
- ◆2 sprigs thyme
Method
- 11. Muddle mint leaves and one sprig of thyme gently in the base of a shaker — press, don't shred.
- 22. Add scotch whisky, apple juice, honey syrup, and lemon juice to the shaker with plenty of ice.
- 33. Shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds until the tin is thoroughly frosted.
- 44. Double-strain into a chilled highball glass over fresh ice to remove herb fragments.
- 55. Top slowly with sparkling water, pouring down the side of the glass to preserve the fizz.
- 66. Stir once gently from the bottom and serve immediately.
PRO TIP
Use a lightly peated scotch like Glenmorangie rather than a heavily smoky Islay expression so the apple and honey can shine through without being overwhelmed.
Garnish — Thyme sprig and a thin apple fan
