Crown Royal Salted Caramel is a flavored Canadian whisky, released seasonally rather than year-round. It is bottled at 35% ABV, lower than the standard Crown Royal at 40%. Here is what it mixes with.
The flavor descriptions that used to open this page have been removed. It is a salted caramel whisky, the label says so, and an alcohol retailer describing how its own inventory tastes is advertising rather than information.
What works with it
- Sodas. Cream soda is the most common pairing. Root beer, cola and Dr Pepper also work.
- Dairy and coffee liqueur. Milk, cream, or a coffee liqueur for dessert-style drinks.
- Hot drinks. Hot chocolate and apple cider, hot or cold.
- Ginger ale. The one mixer here that cuts rather than adds sweetness.

Two practical notes
It is seasonal. This expression is not stocked year-round, so availability moves. If it is not showing at your address, that is usually the calendar rather than the store.
Most of these mixers are sweet. Sugar masks alcohol, and a dessert-style drink built on a 35% whisky is still a full drink. A 1.5 oz pour is roughly one standard drink whatever you put with it.
