About Roy Rogers
The Roy Rogers is a timeless American mocktail, cola sweetened with a splash of grenadine and finished, traditionally, with a maraschino cherry. The drink dates to the mid-twentieth century and was named after the singing cowboy and actor Roy Rogers, who famously did not drink alcohol, which makes it a fitting name for one of the original zero-proof classics. At Sparrow we serve it the honest way, no proof and no pretense, so the kids feel grown-up and the designated driver gets something with a little fun built in. It is a fixture at brunch and a favorite on our four-season dog-friendly patio.
Tasting Notes
Sweet, fizzy and a little nostalgic. The cola brings the bubbles and that familiar dark-cola flavor, while the grenadine adds a rosy sweetness and a touch of color. Served over ice with a cherry, it is pure easy refreshment.
What to Pair It With
The Roy Rogers is built for fun, shareable food. From the Sparrow menu, enjoy it with the Wagyu Sliders, the Honey Wings, or the Fried Chicken and Waffles at weekend brunch. It is a great non-alcoholic option for the whole family.
