Body: <p>I'm a whiskey enthusiast and I want to try making cocktails using whiskey (Normally I use chilled water or Ice cubes, but some whiskeys have an obnoxious smell). I have tried <strong>bourbon (JD, Jim Beam)</strong> with <strong>Fanta</strong> and it tasted good. <strong>Is it possible to use some cold drinks/soft drinks together with whiskey</strong> (like Red Label, Black &amp; White, Teachers, etc, even Signature)?</p>
  <p>Looking forward to any helpful suggestion!</p>

  Whisky/whiskey and soda is a drink that's been popular since the 19th century. In the basic form it is very simple, but there are many possible variations (see, for example, [these eight recipes](https://www.chivas.com/en-EN/latest-from-chivas/8-whisky-highball-recipes-you-need-to-try) from Chivas Regal.
  
  Smokey whisky and Cola (which is usually called a "Smokey Cokey") is my personal favourite.
