A Big List of Highballs

Highballs are by far, the most common type of drink served by the Bartender. And fortunatly enough, they are also the easiest to prepare. In nearly all cases, a Highball glass is filled with ice, and the ingredients are poured straight, without any shaking, stirring, or straining. Most are simple to learn by using association, not memory. A Harvey Wallbanger is Vodka, Galliano, and Orange Juice. A Fred Fudpucker uses Tequila instead of Vodka, but the rest is identical. Get to know these.
