Whiskey Soda (Highball)

Whiskey Soda (Highball) is a simple highball cocktail made by mixing whiskey with soda water and often a citrus twist; it's a common, classic drink in many Western and Japanese drinking cultures prized for its light, effervescent character. It is relatively low in energy compared with many mixed cocktails, at about 55kcal per 100g, but it is consumed primarily for flavor rather than nutrition. Nutrition-wise, this drink contributes virtually no protein, fiber or micronutrients and contains negligible carbohydrates and fats; its value is mostly social and sensory rather than nutritional. From a health perspective, it’s a low-calorie way to enjoy spirits, but like all alcoholic drinks it provides little beneficial nutrients and should be consumed in moderation.
