Horses Neck

Cracked Ice
Lemon peel

Fill the glass halfway with cracked ice.
Add the rye whiskey
Add the ginger ale.

The name “Horses Neck” apparently stems from the curvature of the lemon peel spiral which is reminiscent of a horses neck, or so I have been told.  The drink should be allowed to sit a few minutes before consumption to allow the oils from the lemon peel to be soaked into the ginger ale!
