Ginger Cranberry Cocktail (Frozen Vodka or Gin) Recipe


Ingredients
For Ginger syrup:

4-inch piece ginger, peeled and roughly chopped
1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 cups water
Place all syrup ingredients in a saucepan and simmer until sugar dissolves and the ginger is infused in the syrup, about 20 minutes. Strain and allow to cool fully before use.

For the drink:

1 cup frozen cranberries
1 lime, juiced
2 cups vodka or gin
2 cups cranberry juice

Directions

1 cup ginger syrup, or to taste

Splash club soda
Shaved ginger

Crush the frozen cranberries in a large glass pitcher. Add the lime juice and their juiced wedges to the pitcher. Pour in the vodka, cranberry juice, and ginger syrup. Put ice in low-ball glasses and fill glasses about 2/3 full. Top off with club soda and garnish with a shaving of fresh ginger.

Note: Can be made without soda for a martini
