Equipment
- Cocktail glass
- Jigger or measuring spoons
Ingredients
- 1.5 ounces gin
- 2 ounces pure cranberry juice
- ½ ounce lime juice freshly squeezed
- ½ ounce simple syrup
- 2 ounces prosecco
- cranberries for garnish optional
- sugar rim for garnish optional
Instructions
- Add ice cubes to a cocktail shaker.
- In the cocktail shaker, pour gin, cranberry juice, simple syrup, and lime juice. Secure top on the shaker and shake for 30 seconds.
- Pour beverage into a cocktail glass. Add prosecco or champagne to the top of the drink. Serve with a garnish of fresh cranberries and/or a sugar rim.
Notes
- This recipe was created with 100% pure cranberry juice. If you use cranberry juice cocktail, you don’t need to add the extra sweetness of the simple syrup.
- A Christmas champagne cocktail or prosecco cocktail is extra festive, but if you don't have either of these, sparkling water or tonic water would be a good substitute.
- Don't add prosecco or champagne to the cocktail shaker, pour this ingredient in the drink at the end.
