An easy, crowd pleasing cocktail, using
ingredients you have on hand. Somedays you just need a simple cocktail,
something you can make with out having to run to the store to locate some rare
liquor. It’s nice just to have a
cocktail in your repertoire that you can make with just a few simple
ingredients that you probably already have on hand. Cranberry juice, vodka,
mint and lime combine to make this simple drink.

ingredients: 1/2 cup cranberry pomegranate juice 2 shots of vodka zest and juice of 1 lime 8 mint sprigs ice |
direction: Fill two small cocktail glasses with ice,
then pour in 1/4 cup or more of cranberry pomegranate juice or juice of your
choice. In a cocktail shaker, mix 2 shots of vodka with ice, 6 mint sprigs,
lime zest and lime juice. Shake to combine. Pour lime/vodka mixture over the
cranberry juice. Top with a couple of extra mint leafs. Notes you can choose to stir the juice with the
lime/vodka mixture or leave it as separate layers . I like to keep them as
separate layers so that the sweetest sips are at the end. |
