Blackberry Whisky Sunset Cocktail
A smooth, fruit-forward whisky highball with Crown Royal Blackberry Whisky, fresh citrus, cranberry, muddled blackberries, and a sparkling water topper for that sunset effect.
Equipment
- Cocktail shaker
- Strainer
- Jigger or measuring cup

Ingredients
- 2 oz Crown Royal Blackberry Whisky
- 1 oz lime juice fresh
- 1 oz orange juice
- 1 oz cranberry juice
- 4-5 blackberries fresh or frozen
- 2 oz flavored sparkling water lime or berry
- ice cubes for shaking and serving
- lime wedge or blackberry for garnish
Instructions
- Muddle the blackberries in a cocktail shaker until juicy.
- Add whisky, lime juice, orange juice, and cranberry juice. Fill the shaker halfway with ice.

Notes
Fresh lime juice keeps the sweetness in balance. For deeper color, swap pomegranate juice for cranberry. For a lighter sip, add more sparkling water and reduce the juice slightly. Chilling the glass ahead of time helps it stay cold without extra dilution.
