Jack and Coke (also referred to as JD and Coke, Jack Coke, or a Lemmy) is a highball cocktail made by mixing Jack Daniel's brand Tennessee whiskey with Coca-Cola. It is especially popular in the American South. The drink is generally served with ice – sometimes in an old-fashioned glass or a Collins glass, and sometimes in less-expensive containers such as disposable plastic cups.[1] Bourbon and Coke, more generically bourbon and cola, is basically the same drink, except not identifying a particular brand of whiskey. The "Coke" part of the name may tend to imply that the Coca-Cola brand of cola is used, but it is common for any brand of cola to be referred to as "Coke", at least in the American South.[1][2]
History
The first known mention of a drink made by mixing whiskey with Coke was in a 1907 report of an employee of the United States Bureau of Chemistry and Soils, who encountered the drink when visiting the South, and said the proprietor called it a "Coca-Cola high-ball".[1] Bourbon and Coke would grow to become a common starting point for introducing novice drinkers to bourbon, according to Dave Pickerell, a former master distiller of the Maker's Mark brand of bourbon.[3]
According to Massachusetts Beverage Business in 2005,[4] the popularity of the Jack and Coke combination was on the rise among 21- to 34-year-olds. Mike Keyes, Jack Daniel's Senior Vice President and Global Brand Director, was quoted in 2007 as saying that "Over time, more of Jack Daniel's is being consumed with mixers, such as Coca-Cola."[4]
In 2016, after the death of Lemmy Kilmister, the frontman and bassist of the heavy metal band Motörhead, his fans began a campaign to rename the cocktail after him, due to his prominent and frequent consumption of the drink.[5] On January 12, 2016, Food and Beverage magazine said they had officially named the Jack and Coke combination "The Lemmy".[6]
Variations
Jack and Coke
The term "Jack and Coke" was used[when?] in some combined advertising for Jack Daniel's and Coca-Cola, and several products were created as part of this marketing campaign, including bar signs and taps.[7]
Around 1996, Jack Daniel's released a canned beverage called "Jack Daniel's and Cola", a mixed beverage of the same type as Jack and Coke, in several markets in the South Pacific, including Australia and New Zealand.[8]
Similar beverages
- In Canada a similar cocktail called rye and Coke[9][10][11] replaces the bourbon with Canadian whisky (traditionally a rye whisky). The modern cocktail is often garnished with a wedge of lime.[citation needed] A related cocktail, rye and diet, is made with diet cola.[citation needed]
