9 whisky cocktails to shake up your Easter

Iced Hibiscus Tea

This pink drink’s for spring sipping. Floral, fragrant and fresh. Icy, yet still warming enough for a cooler spring afternoon. We love the flavours of our hibiscus tea cocktail and we’re certain you will too.

For those in the know, hibiscus is a sweet, earthy flower that brings a cranberry-like tartness to your cocktail. Mix with a dollop of honey and complementary pour of smooth, spicy scotch. Plus a lime, lemongrass and basil leaf garnish to bring extra aroma with every sip.

Atholl Brose

A rich and creamy cocktail that’ll go down a treat alongside a chocolate egg. Meet the Atholl Brose. This Scottish cocktail is easy to make yet seriously impressive. A great pick for serving post Sunday roast.

Cream, honey and oatmeal water make up a sweet base. Warmed by Drambuie and our 12 Year Old whisky created by our Master Blender that’s creamy, oaky and honey-sweet. A perfect match.

Whisky Milkshake

Easter’s for indulging. So what better cocktail to make than our Whisky Milkshake. This one’s a little extra, perfect for savouring every moment of your Bank Holiday weekend on the sofa.

Like any good old fashioned shake, we’re blending up liquid chocolate, milk and ice cream with ice. But this time we’re adding whisky for an adult-only kick. Plus a bunch of over the top toppings that’ll make you feel like a kid again. Go classic with cream and marshmallows or stick with the Easter theme and sprinkle over mini eggs. We say go the whole hog and serve it in an Easter egg.

Whisky Apple Mule

Keep things fresh this Easter with our Whisky Apple Mule. This super refreshing whisky cocktail is a spring twist on a Moscow Mule, the classic combo of whisky, ginger beer and lime. 

Simple and sparkling, it calls for some apple juice to liven things up. A perfect drink for serving to friends and family in the garden, before your roast lamb or whenever you feel like it.

Whisky Float

Forget boring cocktails. Forget standard fizzy drinks. And instead, make a Whisky Float. Throwing you back to childhood, this tipsy remix of a cola float puts vanilla ice cream into your whisky and coke mix. It’s so good, you’ll wonder why you’ve never thought of it before. 

Quick, easy and fun to sip. It’s dessert, a drink and sure to impress your mates. What more could you want this Easter?

Berry Beer

This one’s a real crowd pleaser. Berry Beer is a whisky and beer cocktail, perfect for lager lovers and those who prefer a cocktail. It’s light, frothy and easy to drink.

It starts with fresh, muddled blueberries. A dash of honey and lemon juice. And then we pour in the whisky and beer. Creating a sweet and spiced, sparkling serve your friends will want more of. Get ahead of the game and make up a batch for your long weekend celebrations.

Whisky Flip

Forget dessert this Easter, all you need is a Whisky Flip. Rich, creamy and delicious. It’s the perfect combination to end your Sunday feast on. 

Whisky, Amaretto and cream make up this festive drink (one to remember when it comes back round to Christmas). Plus a spiced nutmeg garnish. Serve it up with a chocolate bunny on the side or drink it out of one with a straw. It’s Easter, there’s no excuse not to.

Speyside Spritz

This Easter, we’re celebrating with Speyside Spritz. A fresh, sparkling drink that goes down a treat. It’s our whisky twist on a classic French 75 recipe. Mixing lemon, sparkling wine (or apple cider) and sugar syrup with our sweet, smooth scotch.

We use Ballantine’s 7 American Barrel to get an extra dose of warming honeyed sweetness. Finished in American barrels, this blend is all about those deep gold, soft toffee tones and red apple notes. Raise a toast the Ballantine’s way.
