RECIPE NOTES
3 Zero Proof Whiskey Bourbon Options
Lyre's American Malt is on the lighter side with toasty notes of cedar and honey, plus no aftertaste. It's allergen free (dairy, nut, egg, and gluten), vegan, and only 11 calories.
Kentucky 74 Bourbon Whiskey Spiritis bold and made with real oak, vanilla, and smoke. It's vegan and gluten free with only 15 calories per serving. It does have a spicy aftertaste to mimic alcohol.
Monday Whiskey has the spicy aftertaste and flavors of white oak, burnt sugar, and molasses. The best part is it's zero calories, zero carbs, gluten free, and vegan.
Ingredient Swaps
FOR THE WHISKEY BOURBON. Use a splash of cola or leave it out all together.
FOR THE FRESH CHERRIES. If cherries are out of season, you can cherry simple syrup (1 ounce) or cherry juice (2 to 3 ounces). I do not recommend using frozen cherries, unless they are fresh cherries you froze.
