Notes
A few helpful tips can enhance your cocktail experience:
Chill everything: Keep the vodka and cranberry juice in the fridge before starting. A cold drink is always better.
Try using fresh lime juice for a brighter taste.
Adjust the simple syrup if you prefer it less sweet.
I love experimenting with different garnishes, like a twist of orange peel for extra flair. Comment your variations and favorites below! 🍋
