Cranberry Martini
Ingredient Notes
- Vodka. This provides a neutral alcohol.
- Cointreau. This provides more alcohol, sweetness and orange flavor. You can use Triple Sec or another orange liqueur.
- Cranberry juice. This provides the cranberry flavor.
- Orange juice. This provides additional orange flavoring and adds volume without alcohol.
- Lemon or lime juice (optional). This can help balance the sweetness.
- Ice. This is for shaking and will chill and slightly dilute the drink.
INSTRUCTIONS
- Measure ingredients into a cocktail shaker.
- Add a handful of ice, then shake briefly.
- Pour into serving glass.
- Garnish as desired.
NOTES
If you'd like to turn this into a mocktail, just use an extra 1 1/2 ounces each of orange juice and cranberry juice and omit the vodka and Cointreau.
