Cranberry Smash!
Serves 2
Prep time 5 minutes
Meal type Beverage
Occasion Christmas
Slightly adapted from recipe on About Food
A festive cocktail perfect for the holidays! Sweet, colorful and refreshing. Fast and easy to make. Treat your guests to this cheerful, sparkling beverage! It's a perfect way to start a holiday gathering.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 Cup Fresh cranberries
  • 4 Ounces Vodka or Bourbon
  • 8 Fresh mint leaves
  • Juice from 1/2 of a lime
  • 1 Tablespoon Brown sugar
  • 10 Ounces Ginger ale
  • Ice

Note

Confession:  I don't own a cocktail shaker.  Until Santa brings me one, I muddle the ingredients in a wide bottom bowl and then scoop it all into a plastic jar with a lid.  Fill with ice and shake, shake, shake.  It works just fine for me!

Directions

Step 1
In a shaker, muddle the cranberries, mint, lime juice and brown sugar
Step 2
Add the vodka or bourbon.
Step 3
Fill shaker with ice. Shake mixture until thoroughly chilled.
Step 4
Divide mixture into two cocktail glasses. Fill with ginger ale and enjoy!
