Cranberry Gin Tonic

Cranberry Gin Tonic is a great festive cocktail to enjoy in the holiday season.

Cranberry Gin Tonic is a really easy to make drink, yet it looks and tastes so special. If you are a gin (and tonic) lover, you’ll love the cranberry and lime twist here. It’s aromatic, zesty, citrusy, a little tart, and oh-so-delicious. Try it!

I rarely experiment with cocktails, mainly because my go-to alcohols are always wine and gin tonic. However around Christmas time I have this sudden urge to make different festive drinks. My December favorites are mulled wine, winter Aperol spritz, cashew eggnog, and mandarine vodka. And now I have a new lover: Cranberry Gin Tonic!

Cranberry Gin Tonic is…

• Quick and easy to make
• Zesty and tart
• Refreshing
• Delicious
• Perfect for the holiday season
• Gonna impress your guests
• Great for gin lovers
• Also tasty as a mocktail (with alcohol-free gin)

How to make Cranberry Gin Tonic

This recipe is so simple, and you can make it in 5 minutes max.

All you do is fill up a glass or tumbler with ice cubes (or crushed ice), then add gin, lime juice, and cranberry juice. Then give it a stir.

Now fill up the glass with some tonic water. Taste, and add a little sweetener, if needed. Then decorate your festive gin tonic with fresh cranberries, mint, lime slices, or whatever else you like.

That’s all. Super easy, but so so so delicious!

My favorite tools for this recipe

Well, you don’t need any special tool for this recipe. However these pretty accessories will make your Cranberry Gin Tonic a billion times cuter (click on the pictures for my favorite products):

CUSTOMIZE IT THE WAY YOU LIKE IT!

• Try it with vodka, if you are not a huge fan of gin. Or make a mocktail with alcohol-free gin.

• If you like things a little sweeter, add some simple syrup or maple syrup to your gin tonic.

• Instead of tonic you can also use sparkling water.

• Don’t be afraid to play around with the ratios. Make it strong with double shot gin, or use more lime juice, or cranberry juice.

• Besides mint, rosemary and basil work also great with this cocktail.
