History
The Horse's Neck cocktail first appeared in 1895 in "Modern American drinks", a book written by the American bartender George Kappeler who is certainly the originator of this recipe.
Horse's neck means "horse's neck", and it is originally a non-alcoholic drink, simply composed of ginger ale and a long lemon zest running throughout the interior of the glass. This specific decoration already existed and is therefore not an invention of George Kappeler.
* Originally alcohol-free, Horse's Neck was however released in the decades that followed with all kinds of alcohol: gin, brandy, whiskey or rum. You are free to use the brandy you prefer, or not to include any!
