There is no shortage of cocktail recipes around the holidays. I love a classic seasonal drink and the Cranberry Martini doesn't disappoint! I typically always have these ingredients on hand, but if you don't have fresh lime juice you can use bottled (but it won't taste as fresh).
I'll be enjoying this cocktail as I stay up doing everything last minute this weekend. Tis the season!
Wishing you and your loved ones a joyful and peaceful holiday weekend!
Ingredients
- 2 ounces vodka
- 1/2 ounce triple sec, Cointreau, or Grand Marnier
- 3/4 ounce cranberry juice (I like the kind from Trader Joe's)
- 1/4 to 1/2 ounce fresh lime juice
- One 2-inch orange peel/twist
- Ice
Directions
1. Fill a cocktail shaker with ice, vodka, triple sec, cranberry juice, and lime.
2. Shake vigorously for 20-30 seconds.
3. Pour into a chilled martini glass (or glass of your choice!) and enjoy!
