HOLIDAY COCKTAIL: CRANBERRY MULE
‘Tis the season, friends. It’s December, the official start to the holiday season. And if you’re like me – when it comes to the holidays, I just can’t help myself. Crank up the Mariah, throw greenery everywhere, and deck the halls. Any chance I have to add a festive touch, I’ll take it. Naturally, I used this same approach for making this holiday cocktail. There’s nothing better than taking a classic drink and putting a little holiday spin on it. Case in point: the holiday Cranberry Mule. Keep reading for the recipe!
WHAT YOU'LL NEED
- 2 oz. vodka
- 2 oz. ginger beer
- 2 oz. cranberry juice
- 1 tbsp. simple syrup (optional)
- 1/2 tbsp. lime juice, freshly squeezed
- 2 tbsp. frozen cranberries
- Ice for serving
- Lime or orange slices for garnish
- Rosemary sprigs for garnish
DIRECTIONS
MIX IT UP: Add the vodka, ginger beer, cranberry juice, simple syrup (if you like it sweet), and lime juice to your cocktail shaker. Shake well.
PREP THE GLASS: Add the frozen cranberries and ice to your cocktail glass.
THE FINAL TOUCH: Pour the mixture over ice and garnish with lime or orange slices and a sprig of rosemary for that special holiday touch. Now, sit back, relax, and raise a glass to the most wonderful time of the year.
