"Whiskey in My Water" is a song recorded by American country music artist Tyler Farr. It was released in November 2013 as the fourth single from his debut album, Redneck Crazy. Farr wrote the song with Phillip LaRue and Jon Ozier. The song garnered mixed reviews from critics who felt that it was nondescript in its lyrics, despite Farr's vocal delivery.

"Whiskey in My Water" peaked at numbers 3 and 11 on the US Billboard Country Airplay and Hot Country Songs charts respectively. It also peaked at number 52 on the Hot 100. The song was certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), and has sold 548,000 copies in that country as of July 2014. Its chart success in Canada was similar, peaking at number 10 on the Country chart and number 73 on the Canadian Hot 100. The accompanying music video for the song was directed by Chris Hicky and features a couple in various romantic escapades.

The song received a mixed review from Taste of Country, which said that "while he takes chances elsewhere on the project, this ballad plays it safe with a familiar storyline." It went on to say that "while not a true vocal showcase, ‘Whiskey in My Water’ is an opportunity for Farr to show off his strong vocal abilities." In his review of the album, Matt Bjorke of Roughstock wrote that it has "a sing-a-long ready chorus" but felt that it "may be just a little too everyman compared to the rest of the tracks on the record."

The music video was directed by Chris Hicky and premiered in January 2014. The video follows a couple in various romantic escapades. Farr is featured singing outside a forest in the fall and a brewery basement while having whiskey.

"Whiskey in My Water" debuted at number 58 on the US Billboard Country Airplay chart for the week of November 23, 2013. It also debuted at number 46 on the US Billboard Hot Country Songs chart for the week of December 28, 2013.
