If you're craving a refreshing, fruity drink with a hint of that whiskey kick but want to keep it booze-free, you’re in for a treat. Today, I’m sharing a recipe that’s a sober(ish) take on the classic Blackberry Crown Royal – meet the Non-Alcoholic Blackberry Whiskey & Lemonade!
This drink is perfect for those warm days when you want something tangy and sweet but without the hangover. Plus, we’re adding our special Sober(ish) Drops for that perfect buzz without the booze. Let’s dive in!
Ingredients:
- 1 oz non-alcoholic whiskey
- 1 tablespoon homemade blackberry syrup (I’ll link to my easy recipe below!)
- 1 cup Lemonade (enough to top off your glass)
- 1 ml Sober(ish) Drops (optional, for a buzz without the booze)
- Ice cubes (optional, but I know you like it chill)
Instructions:

Start with the NA Whiskey:
- Pour 1 oz of non-alcoholic whiskey into your favorite glass. This gives you that familiar whiskey flavor without the alcohol.
