Whisky Peach Highball: Scotch, peach tea syrup and lime

↓ Jump to recipe

Quick answer

The Whisky Peach Highball is 45 ml Scotch whisky, 20 ml Swa Peach Tea syrup and 20 ml lime juice built over ice and topped with 150 ml soda or ginger ale. Single or blended Scotch both work, and the drink takes about two minutes.

Why does this recipe work?

Peach is sweet and slightly acidic, which balances whisky notes. The syrup uses peaches grown in Punjab and UP with brewed black tea, adding a gentle bitter edge.

Where does it fit on a bar menu?

Suggest pairing with smoked meats, cheese crackers, nuts or dark chocolate on a bar menu. It is a good upsell option for a whisky list.

Frequently asked questions

Single malt or blended Scotch?

Either. Blended Scotch is lighter and cheaper to pour; a single malt gives more character.

Soda or ginger ale?

Ginger ale adds sweetness and spice. Soda keeps the drink drier.

What food goes with it?

Smoked meats, cheese crackers, nuts and dark chocolate pair well with whisky and peach.
