Okay, let’s talk about this drink I tried out – the Cranberry Juice and Crown Royal Apple. I saw it online and thought, “Why not?” Fall was coming up, and it looked like the perfect autumn drink with its red and green colors. It was super easy to make, so I figured I’d give it a shot.
First, I grabbed a rocks glass and filled it with ice. Then, I poured in some Crown Royal Apple. I gotta say, this stuff is interesting. It’s like, the fanciest Canadian whisky at the store, but it’s still not crazy expensive, you know? I was expecting it to be harsh, but it was surprisingly smooth.
After the whisky, I topped the glass with cranberry juice. I just used the regular stuff from the grocery store, nothing fancy. I gave it a good stir, making sure the whisky and juice were all mixed up. Oh, and I almost forgot – I sliced up a green apple and used a slice to garnish the drink. It looked pretty snazzy, if I do say so myself.
Now for the taste test. The Crown Royal Apple has this sweet apple flavor, but it’s not, like, candy sweet. It’s more natural, and it mixes really well with the oaky taste of the regular Crown Royal. The cranberry juice added a nice tartness that cut through the sweetness. It was a good balance – not too sweet, not too sour.
I’ve also heard you can mix this whisky with other stuff like apple cider, lemon-lime soda, or even ginger ale. I haven’t tried those yet, but they sound pretty good. I also read something about making a mimosa with it, which sounds wild, also some Simple Syrup Mint Leaves to mix with it. But for this time, I stuck with the cranberry juice.
- Fill a rocks glass with ice.
- Pour in Crown Royal Apple.
- Top with cranberry juice.
- Stir well.
- Garnish with an apple slice.
Honestly, this drink is a winner. It’s simple, it’s tasty, and it looks cool. It’s definitely something I’d make again, maybe for a party or just a chill night in. If you’re looking for a new drink to try, give this one a shot. You might be surprised at how much you like it!
