Whisky mac

What is "whisky mac"?

Whisky mac is a classic cocktail that is made by combining equal parts Scotch whisky and green ginger wine. The drink is typically served over ice in a tumbler or highball glass, and may be garnished with a slice of lemon or orange. Whisky mac has a bold and spicy flavor, with the whisky providing a smoky and complex taste that is balanced by the sweetness and spiciness of the ginger wine. The drink has a long history, dating back to the late 19th century when it was a popular remedy for colds and flu. It later became a fashionable drink among the British upper class, and was often served at high-society events. Today, whisky mac is still enjoyed as a classic cocktail, particularly in the United Kingdom and other parts of Europe.
