A workaround for a drillup button in combination with the setChart() solution, can be to add a hyperlink (e.g. in a subtitle). Then give the original data to setChart()

$(document).on('click', '#drillup', function () {
    var data = {categories: categories, series: series};
    setChart('new title', categories, data, chart.type);
});

Found a neat solution here

Uses a drillup option,

 Highcharts.setOptions({
        lang: {
            drillUpText: '<< Go Back {series.name}'
        }
    });
