Alcoholic Cocktail Beer Mug or Pilsner Glass 3 ingredients

Recipe

  • 1/2 glass ice
  • 1 oz Canadian Hunter Whiskey
  • 6-8 oz Diet Dr. Pepper

Instructions

While visiting friends this summer in Colorado, Dan Divens (of Smooth Johnny fame) and I discovered a great way to work through a half gallon of Canadian Hunter Whiskey. Mixing CH with Diet Dr. Pepper added just the right amount of sweetness to compliment the surprisingly smooth Whiskey. It was the perfect companion for our late night chats and campfire gatherings. Its also a safe bet that this combo will be a hit on any camping trip. Long live the Hunter!Pour a healthy shot of Canadian Hunter Whiskey into a pint glass. Add 6-8 ounces of Diet Dr. Pepper. Fill the glass with ice after the liquids to avoid foaming and overflowing. Enjoy!

About Colorado Hunter

The Colorado Hunter is a simple yet intriguing cocktail that combines the robust flavors of Canadian Hunter Whiskey with the unique, cherry-infused taste of Diet Dr. Pepper. Served over half a glass of ice, the drink is refreshing and easy to make, with a balance of smooth whiskey notes and the distinct sweetness of the soda. This cocktail is perfect for those who enjoy a drink with a bit of character and depth, without being overly complex.

The origins of the Colorado Hunter are not well-documented, but it likely emerged as a creative twist on traditional whiskey and soda pairings. Canadian Hunter Whiskey, known for its smoothness and affordability, pairs well with the bold flavor of Diet Dr. Pepper, making this cocktail a favorite for casual gatherings and relaxed evenings. The drink's name suggests an adventurous spirit, perhaps evoking images of the Rocky Mountains and the rugged landscapes of Colorado. Whether sipping on a quiet night or sharing with friends, the Colorado Hunter offers a unique and satisfying experience.

This cocktail is alcoholic, so drink responsibly! Best served in a Beer Mug or Pilsner Glass, though any glass works!

Feel free to get creative with substitutions — try different fruit types, sugar substitutes, or liquor brands. Crafting cocktails should be fun!
