Spiced Cranberry Fizz
A Festive and Refreshing Winter Mocktail
Ingredients
- ½ cup fresh cranberries
- ¼ cup fresh orange juice
- 1 tablespoon grenadine
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- Pinch of ground cloves
- ½ cup club soda
- Ice cubes
- Orange slice and cinnamon stick for garnish optional
Instructions
- Combine cranberries, orange juice, maple syrup, cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves in a saucepan. Heat on low until the cranberries soften, about 5 minutes.
- Strain and let the mixture cool for 3 to 5 minutes.
- Pour into a glass filled with ice.
- Slowly top with club soda.
- Slowly pour 1 tablespoon of grenadine down the inside of the glass (or over the back of a spoon). It's heavier than the soda, so it sinks to the bottom for a deep red layer.
- Garnish with an orange slice and cinnamon stick, if using.
