Horse's Neck

IBA

Originating in the United States in the late 1800s as a non-alcoholic ginger ale drink, the Horse's Neck gained its spirit when brandy was added in the early 20th century. The warmth of brandy melds with spicy ginger ale and a whisper of aromatic bitters, creating a long, gently complex drink with more nuance than its simplicity suggests.
