Start out by gathering all of your ingredients and equipment together.
Fill your highball glass to the top with ice.
Grab your jigger and measure 2 oz of Jameson's. Toss that into your highball glass over the ice.
Grab your jigger and measure 4 oz of Coke. Toss that into your highball glass over the ice and Jameson's.optional: instead of measuring it out, you can just top the glass off with Coke.
Mix your drink together:1) you can either take your bar spoon and give it a good stir.2) or, you can gently pour the glass of liquid and ice into your cocktail shaker and then pour everything back into your glass.
optional garnish: you can add a lemon or lime wedge as an optional garnish. Simply cut them into slices, take one slice and cut a notch in the pulp, use that notch to secure it on the rim of your glass.
Notes
Variations
FlavoredJamesons. Mix it up a little by using Jameson orange for a citrus twist or Jameson cold brew for some coffee flavor.
Use vanilla Coke. Instead of using regular Coke use vanilla Coke for an extra vanilla flavor that will greatly complement the flavor in your Jameson's.
Use diet Coke or Coke zero. If you're watching your calories or your sugar intake you can try using diet Coke or Coke zero instead of regular Coke.
Mixing Tips
Stir, don't shake. Due to the carbonation in the soda, you don't want to shake this drink to mix it up. Instead use a bar spoon to stir it. Or gently toss it from the glass to the shaker back to the glass.
Keep a 2:1 ratio. The 2:1 Coke to liquor ratio leaves the perfect flavor for this drink, just enough to taste a little of the Jamesons, but not have it be overwhelming.
