Horse's Neck

Contemporary ClassicsIBA CocktailBrandy

Dating back to the 1890s, it was a non-alcoholic mixture of ginger ale, ice and lemon peel. By the 1910s, brandy, or bourbon would be added for a 'Horse's Neck with a Kick' or a 'Stiff Horse's Neck'. The non-alcoholic version was still served in upstate New York in the late 1950s and early 60s, but eventually it was phased out.
