Ingredient Notes:
- Crown Royal – This Canadian whiskey provides a smooth base for our slushie. Its vanilla and oak notes pair perfectly with cherry cola.
- Cherry Coke – Adds sweetness and that classic cola flavor. You can use diet soda if you prefer.
- Grenadine – Enhances the cherry flavor and adds a beautiful color to your drink.
- Ice – Creates that perfect slushy consistency. Use crushed ice for the best texture.
Substitutions and Additions
- Whiskey Options – While Crown Royal works best, try your favorite whiskey or bourbon for a different flavor profile.
- Soda Choices – Regular Coke or ginger ale can work instead of Cherry Coke.
- Garnish Ideas – Add maraschino cherries, fresh mint leaves, or an orange slice for extra flair.

- Make Ahead: You can pre-mix the liquid ingredients and store in an airtight container.
