BIZZY IZZY HIGH BALL
This classic 1917 cocktail blends the robust character of rye or bourbon whiskey with the nutty depth of sherry wine for a complex and satisfying sip. Sweetened with aromatic pineapple syrup and brightened by a splash of fresh lemon juice, the Bizzy Izzy Highball offers a delightful balance of savory and fruity notes. Served simply over ice in a tall glass, this vintage libation provides a unique and elegant tasting experience.
