Description
Learn how to make a Cranberry Gin and Tonic, the perfect holiday cocktail! This easy recipe is bright, refreshing, and full of seasonal flavor.
Ingredients
- 2 oz Gin
- 2 oz Cranberry Juice OR 1 heaping teaspoon Cranberry Sauce
- 2-3 oz Tonic Water
- GARNISH: Sprig of rosemary and a couple of fresh cranberries
Instructions
- Add the Gin and cranberry juice or cranberry sauce to the bottom of a cocktail glass and stir together until mixed well.
- Fill the glass with ice.
- Slowly pour in the tonic water and then use a long-handled bar spoon to stir gently to combine.
- Garnish with a sprig of rosemary and a few fresh cranberries. Serve immediately.
Notes
- If opting for cranberry juice, look for 100% pure, unsweetened juice to keep the tart cranberry flavor front and center. However, if you can’t find unsweetened juice, add 1/4 oz of fresh lime juice to cut the sweetness if necessary.
- If you like a sweeter cocktail, add a splash of simple syrup. I recommend starting with 1/4 oz and building from there.
