Crown Royal Lemonade
Our Crown Royal Lemonade is a smooth, refreshing cocktail with juicy peach flavor and the perfect splash of tart lemonade. It’s light, easy to make, and perfect for sunny afternoons or patio sipping with friends. We’ve used the Peach version, which makes it a little sweeter, but any variety will work.
Lemonade is already a summer essential, but spike it with Crown Royal Peach and you’ve got a cocktail that’s too refreshing not to share. The flavors are tangy with just the right sweetness, kind of like that ice-cold lemonade you gulped down as a kid. Only this adult version comes with a little whisky swagger, which is exactly what cocktail hour calls for.
This drink is perfect for lazy evenings and get-togethers with friends, especially when no one feels like playing bartender. You only need two ingredients, a handful of ice, and a fruity garnish like peach slices or lemon rounds.
Peach lovers might also fall for our Crown Royal Peach Tea Cocktail or this Peach Cobbler Cocktail, a fun nod to summer dessert, in sippable form.

Variations and Substitutions
There are a few fun ways to change this up if you want something a little different.
Try it with mango lemonade for a tropical twist, or go with pink lemonade for a pretty blush-colored drink.
Crown Royal Blackberry is another great option if you’re in the mood for a blackberry lemonade with a softer berry flavor. And if you’re feeling extra, blend it all with ice to make a frozen Crown Royal Lemonade slush.
If you like a little fizz, add sparkling water or club soda just before serving. It gives you the right amount of carbonation without watering things down.
Top Tips
- Use a lemonade that has real lemon juice for the freshest citrus taste.
- Garnish matters. Lemon wheels and peach slices aren’t just pretty, they add a little something fruity to the overall whisky notes in the drink.
- Always serve cold over plenty of ice. Crown Royal Peach is a smooth whisky, but it really shines when chilled.
- Looking for the perfect snack pairing? Try pairing this cocktail with a fruit tray or salty snack board. It’s one of those alcoholic beverages that works with just about anything.
- While you can use other whisky, Crown Royal has picked up more than one gold medal, including honors at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition, so you know you’re starting with an incredible whisky.
