For a warm, sunny day spent outside, you’d be hard-pressed to find a more refreshing cocktail than a highball. Some may find them plain, but I love their simplicity. They are infinitely sippable and customizable. For my third “I knew I needed to make this drink” when my friends at Writer sent me their copper pot Irish whiskey, a flipped highball with tremendous depth from the whiskey that has the added refreshment of a fresh garden herb- purple basil! Let’s get Flipped!

Flipped Basil Highball 3‑4 purple basil leaves (regular basil works too) 2 oz Writers' Tears Copper Pot Whiskey 5 oz club soda In a glass of your choosing, add your leaves and a splash of soda. Muddle gently until the soda turns lightly purple (or green if using regular basil). Add ice, whiskey, and the rest of the soda and stir briefly. Garnish with a basil crown (optional). Enjoy!
Editor's Note
Purple basil colors the highball while copper‑pot Irish whiskey adds depth, creating a garden‑fresh sipper for warm days.
