About
The Horse’s Neck is a cocktail that embodies elegance and simplicity. Its origins date back to the late 19th century, a time when refreshing drinks based on soda and bitters were all the rage. Originally, it was a simple non-alcoholic drink, made with ginger ale and a long, spiraling lemon peel that dipped into the glass like a horse’s mane, hence its evocative name.
