Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup cranberry juice (unsweetened or 100% juice preferred)
  • ½ cup sparkling water or club soda (chilled)
  • 2 tbsp fresh orange juice
  • 1 tbsp simple syrup (or honey, to taste)
  • Fresh cranberries, for garnish
  • Mint leaves (or rosemary sprigs), for garnish
  • Ice cubes, as needed

Optional Flavor Boosters:

  • A splash of ginger ale for warmth
  • A dash of lime juice for extra zest

Instructions
 

  • Mix the Base
    In a cocktail shaker or mixing glass, combine cranberry juice, orange juice, and simple syrup. Add a few ice cubes and shake gently for about 10–15 seconds to chill and blend the flavors.
  • Add the Fizz
    Strain the mixture into your favorite festive glass filled with fresh ice. Slowly pour in sparkling water (or club soda) and stir gently — you want to keep those bubbles alive.
  • Garnish and Serve
    Top it with a handful of fresh cranberries and a sprig of mint or rosemary. For an extra festive look, rim your glass with sugar or add a twist of orange peel.
  • Sip, Smile, Repeat
    Raise your glass and enjoy that first sip — crisp, tart, and perfectly bubbly. It’s everything you want in a holiday drink, minus the alcohol.
