Rye Rickey
Journey back to the roaring 20s with our Rye Rickey cocktail. This refreshing libation features the bold, earthy notes of rye whiskey, perfectly balanced with the tart freshness of lime juice. Topped with effervescent soda water and garnished with a lively lime wedge, it's an invigorating cocktail that's as sophisticated as it is sip-worthy.
Ingredients
- Rye whiskey
- 2 ounces
- Fresh lime juice
- 1 ounce
- Soda water
- 4 ounces
- Lime wedge
- 1 (for garnish)
- Ice
- as needed
Instructions
- Fill a highball glass with ice cubes to chill your glass and keep your cocktail cool.
- Pour 2 ounces of rye whiskey over the ice.
- Add 1 ounce of fresh lime juice to the glass. The tartness of the lime will beautifully balance the robust flavor of the rye whiskey.
- Stir the mixture gently with a long spoon to combine the whiskey and lime juice.
- Top the mixture with 4 ounces of soda water. The soda water adds a refreshing fizziness that makes this cocktail a delight to drink.

- Enjoy your Rye Rickey responsibly and savor the lively flavors. Cheers!
Tips
- For a smoother drink, consider using a premium rye whiskey.
- If you prefer your cocktail a little sweeter, add a splash of simple syrup before the soda water.
- For a twist, swap the soda water for ginger beer to create a 'Rye Mule.'
