1

Prepare the cranberry sauce

In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup of fresh cranberries, 1/2 cup of orange juice, and 1/4 cup of sugar. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 10 minutes until the cranberries have burst and the sauce has thickened. Remove from heat and let it cool completely.

2

Mix the cocktail

In a cocktail shaker, add 2 ounces of cranberry sauce, 2 ounces of vodka, 1 ounce of orange liqueur, and the juice of 1/2 a lime. Fill the shaker with ice cubes and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds to mix everything together and chill the cocktail.

Strain and serve

Strain the cocktail into a glass filled with fresh ice or, for extra flair, strain it into a chilled martini glass. Garnish with a sprig of rosemary and a few cranberries for a festive touch. Cheers!
