Crown Royal Adds New Whisky Lemonade Flavor to Ready-to-Drink Cocktail Lineup

NEW YORK, Feb. 16, 2022 Crown Royal is bringing the flavor to spring and summer celebrations for the next generation of drinkers (21+) with Whisky Lemonade, its newest ready-to-drink cocktail flavor.

Crown Royal introduces Whisky Lemonade ready-to-drink cocktail flavor for a limited time.

With three award-winning canned cocktail flavors* currently in its portfolio – Whisky & Cola, Washington Apple, and Peach Tea – Whisky Lemonade combines the refreshingly light taste of lemonade with fruity whisky notes. Its effervescent taste – with balanced levels of sweetness and tartness and plenty of whisky character – are what Crown Royal drinkers know and love. This new, bold flavor is what turns parties into block parties, BBQ’s into neighborhood feasts, making it the perfect choice to enjoy with friends and family this spring and summer.

"At Crown Royal we’re continuously ideating new blends and flavor profiles to meet the evolving tastes of our drinkers," said Nicky Heckles, Vice President at Crown Royal. "The new Whisky Lemonade flavor is the latest innovation that fuses a familiar summertime staple with the boldness of our whisky, providing a fresh take on ready-to-drink cocktails."

This February, the original flavors Whisky & Cola, Washington Apple, and Peach Tea will be available nationwide so that drinkers from across the country – who love a variety of delicious flavor offerings – will be able to enjoy all spring and summer long.

Crown Royal Whisky Lemonade is best served chilled and is available for a limited time in select locations across the nation in 4-packs priced at $14.99 SRP. Each ready-to-drink cocktail has 7% ABV.

Crack open a can of Whisky Lemonade with your best friends, responsibly.
