The Tiger Juice cocktail is very simple and old-fashioned. It’s just Canadian whiskey with orange juice and a touch of lemon juice. This isn’t one of those cocktails that are mainly juice – the whole drink is three ounces, and half of that is the whiskey.
There are a number of Canadian whiskeys, with Crown Royal being probably the best known. It’s definitely a good choice for this one, although other brands will work, too. The fruit juice smooths out any rough edges from the whiskey and livens it up with citrus notes.
Recipe
- 1 1/2 ounce Canadian whiskey
- 1/2 ounce lemon juice
- 1 ounce orange juice
Fill a cocktail shaker halfway with ice. Pour all three ingredients in and shake well. Strain the mixture into a chilled cocktail glass.

This is a wonderful drink. It’s exactly the kind of drink that is suitable to my tastes. I didn’t even know it had a name, I just mixed a drink one day that I thought I would enjoy. I also used Canadian Whiskey. It felt so good to realize there is someone out there who enjoys the same kind of drink that I do.

I didn’t want a strong drink so I made one that was 60 mL orange juice and 15 mL Crown Royal Deluxe in a typical tumbler. Very nice. Coffee or cola also works well instead of orange juice.

I stumbled upon this recipe when I was searching for a way to drink my whiskey after running out of coke…. and this IMMEDIATELY became my favourite drink ever! I do prefer to mix it a bit weaker so that I can drink it more refreshingly, but with MORE lemon juice because I love the bite that it provides:
– 1 ounce whiskey
– 1 ounce lemon juice
– 4-ish ice cubes
– orange juice to the top of your glass
Absofuckinglutely DELICIOUS.
