We’re kicking off this list with two recipes created by the lovely Danielle (teaandme) you can check out her blog here.
🍹 Cranberry Lemon Fizz
You will need:
- 3 tsp Cranberry Sauce (Cranberries, Sugar, Water, Honey)
- 1 Shot Vodka (optional)
- 1/2 Cup Lemon Waffle Brewed Tea
- Sparkling Water (to top off)
- Cranberries & Rosemary to Garnish
Instructions:
Start with making the Cranberry sauce from scratch. In a small pan, combine a half cup of Cranberries, 1.5 tbsp of sugar, a drizzle of honey, and 1/4 water. Put over medium heat and cook for 10-15 minutes until the cranberries are a jammy substance. Be careful not to leave the pot alone on the stove, it can easily overflow. From there, fill a cup with ice and pour 3 spoonfuls of cranberry sauce over them. Add the vodka, tea, and Sparkling water to the glass and stir. Get a toothpick and put 3 cranberries on it. Garnish with cranberries and rosemary. Enjoy!
