Do you have some leftover cranberry sauce? Make a Cranberry Sunrise!
(For Shannon, with love)
Ingredients and Supplies
- Large Pilsner glass
- 2 Tbsp cranberry sauce (preferably home-made, not that canned crap)
- 2 oz vodka (substitute rum or tequila)
- 8 oz (1 cup) orange juice
- 1/2 cup of ice, cubed
- Small Measuring cup
Instructions
- Add 2 Tbsp cranberry sauce to empty measuring cup
- Add 1 oz vodka to measuring cup
- With a spoon, blend cranberry sauce and vodka to form a syrup
- Put 1 oz vodka in an empty Pilsner glass
- Add 1/2 cup ice to Pilsner glass
- Pour 8 oz (1 cup) orange juice over the ice, in to the Pilsner glass
- Gently pour cranberry syrup on top of the floating ice – it will slowly sink to the bottom, forming a magenta layer at the bottom of the glass.
Garnish with orange or lime
