How the ratios work

A classic highball runs about 1 part spirit to 3 parts mixer. Vodka is built a touch longer because it brings less flavor of its own. The strength slider shifts the ratio one step in either direction so you can match your taste.

One important note: a true Dark ’n’ Stormy and a Moscow Mule use ginger beer, not ginger ale – they’re spicier and drier. For the full guide, see what alcohol goes with ginger ale.
