Method

Add ingredients to a shaker without ice. Dry shake for 30 seconds – vigorously. The harder you shake the better the drink will be! Add plenty ice to the shaker and shake again – vigorously – for another 30 seconds. Strain into a chilled coupe glass. Optional: drop a few dots of cranberry bitters on the top of the froth and swirl with a toothpick, or otherwise decorate with a cocktail stick and fresh cranberries.

Notes

*Heat 1 cup water, 1 cup granulated sugar, 10 cranberries, 5 whole cloves, and 5 whole allspice berries in a saucepan on medium heat, whisking until sugar dissolves. Reduce to a simmer and heat for 10 minutes. Remove from heat and strain. Allow syrup to cool complete before using in your cocktails. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 weeks.

**Can also use other orange liqueur like Grand Marnier or Cointreau
