Canadian Club & Ginger

Canadian Club is a distinctive Canadian whiskey, produced using a unique blend of rye and barley grain whiskey. It was created in 1858 by Hiram Walker and Sons and is now owned by Beam Suntory. Canadian Club is aged in charred white oak barrels, giving it a unique flavor of rye spice, aged oak, and sweet fruitiness. Canadian Club is traditionally served neat or over ice, but it also makes a great base for creative cocktails. When combined with ginger ale, Canadian Club makes a classic highball. The Canadian Club and Ginger Ale, or “CC and Ginger,” is a refreshing, crowd-pleasing drink and a wonderful way to enjoy whiskey in the summer. The ideal recipe for a Canadian Club and Ginger Ale highball is 2 ounces of Canadian Club and 4 to 6 ounces of ginger ale poured over ice in a highball glass. This beverage is easy to make and can easily be customized to suit different tastes. To make it a bit more exciting, it can be topped with a lime wedge, a sprig of mint, or a splash of seltzer.
