Equipment

  • A cocktail shaker: If you don't have one, a mason jar with a lid works fine.
  • Measuring cups and spoons: To get the perfect balance of flavors.
  • A strainer: To filter any ginger pieces.
  • Glasses: I like to use tall glasses for this drink.

Ingredients

Here's what you need:

  • 1 cup cranberry juice: I use 100% juice for the best flavor.
  • 1/2 cup ginger ale: This adds the perfect amount of fizz.
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice: Freshly squeezed gives the best taste.
  • Fresh ginger slices: About two slices for a warm touch.
  • Cranberries and lime wedges: For garnish.

The bold flavors of cranberry and ginger make this drink stand out. Adding lime just ties it all together. 🍋

Instructions

Follow these simple steps to make the mocktail:

  • Add ice into your shaker.
  • Pour in cranberry juice, lime juice, and a few ginger slices.
  • Shake well for about 15 seconds.
  • Strain into a glass filled with ice.
  • Top with ginger ale and stir gently.
  • Garnish with cranberries and a lime wedge.

Make sure you shake the mix vigorously so the flavors combine perfectly. The result is a delightful, fizzy drink perfect for any occasion.

    Notes

    Some extra tips for you:
    For a sweeter twist, you can add a spoonful of honey or sugar.
    If you prefer a less strong ginger flavor, limit to just one slice.
    Try adding a sprig of mint for freshness.
