Whiskey and Coke is a classic highball cocktail made by mixing whiskey (typically bourbon or Tennessee whiskey) with cola. Originating in the United States, it's one of the world's most popular and simple mixed drinks, often garnished with a lime wedge.
This drink is high in carbohydrates and sugar from the cola, with negligible fat or protein. A standard serving (1.5 oz whiskey + 5 oz cola) contains roughly 180-200 calories.
Its cultural significance is immense, often associated with casual socializing and American pop culture. Nutritionally, it provides a quick energy boost from sugar but offers no essential vitamins or minerals.
