Monday Whiskey is a non-alcoholic take on classic American whiskey, with notes of butterscotch, toasted brown sugar and raisin, followed by roasted coffee, caramel and molasses, a touch of orange, and a lingering spicy finish.
The warmth can be pronounced when tasted straight, and this isn’t necessarily a 1:1 replacement for traditional whiskey. Think of it as a cocktail ingredient you may need to play with a little. Once you find the right proportion, the caramel and spice settle beautifully into a drink and give it the structure and warmth that can be difficult to achieve with a non-alcoholic spirit.
Why We Love It
Non-alcoholic whiskey is a particularly tricky category because so much of traditional whiskey’s body and warmth comes from alcohol. Monday uses darker caramelized flavors and warmth to build structure. Once you find the right balance, it works beautifully and brings real depth to the glass.
Try It With
Monday Whiskey shines in cocktails where its caramel and spice can settle into other flavors. Try it in an Old Fashioned, Whiskey Sour, Manhattan-style cocktail, or with ginger ale, ginger beer or cola. Because the warmth can be noticeable, start with a little less Monday than you might normally use for whiskey, taste, and adjust from there.
Cheeky & Dry Signature Serve — The Monday Appointment: Combine Monday Whiskey with a touch of maple syrup and 2–3 dashes of All The Bitter Aromatic Bitters over a large cube. Stir, taste, and adjust the whiskey until the balance of sweetness, caramel and warmth is right for you. Finish with an orange peel.
Pair it with: barbecue, smoked or roasted meats, sharp cheddar, roasted nuts, caramelized onions, apple desserts, or dark chocolate.
