Ingredients
Mocktail Ingredients
- 1 cup cranberry juice
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Soda water or club soda, to top off
- Ice cubes, for chilling
- Fresh cranberries or lime slices, for garnish
Instructions
- Chill the shaker: Fill a cocktail shaker with ice cubes to cool it, ensuring your mocktail will be served refreshingly cold.
- Add ingredients: Pour 1 cup of cranberry juice and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract into the shaker over the ice.
- Shake well: Secure the lid and shake vigorously until the mixture is well combined and chilled, about 15-20 seconds.
- Strain the mixture: Strain the liquid into your preferred glass to remove excess ice and ensure a smooth drink.
- Top with soda: Add soda water or club soda to fill the glass, giving the mocktail a sparkling finish.
- Garnish and serve: Add fresh cranberries or lime slices on top for a festive and aromatic touch before serving immediately.
Notes
- You can substitute soda water with lemon-lime sparkling water for a slightly sweeter taste.
- Adjust the amount of vanilla extract to your preference to control the aroma and sweetness.
- For extra chill, pre-chill your glass in the freezer before serving.
- This mocktail is best enjoyed immediately to maintain the soda’s fizz.
- Keep fresh cranberries or lime slices on hand for garnish to enhance the presentation.
