Review:
Bourbon and cola with a splash of aromatic bitters. America's answer to Britain's G&T is a sight more rock 'n' roll – or even heavy metal. In contrast the G&T is more Chamber orchestra.
History:
Lemmy Kilmister (1945 - 2015), front man of the British heavy metal band Motörhead, was known for drinking Jack or Beam and Coke so spawning the Lemmy, essentially a highball with bourbon, cola +/- bitters.
