7 and 7 Recipe

Seagram's 7 Crown: A blended American whiskey known for its smooth and approachable flavor. It forms the base of the cocktail, providing depth and warmth.

7-Up: A lemon-lime flavored soda that adds a refreshing, bubbly element to the drink, balancing the whiskey's richness.

For an extra refreshing twist, chill your highball glass in the freezer for about 10 minutes before preparing the drink. This will keep your Seagram's 7 Crown and 7-Up colder for longer, enhancing the overall experience.
