Notes

FAQs
  • Can I use something else in place of the gin? While I love the woodsy, pine-y flavor of gin, I know it’s not for everyone. For a less complex flavor profile, try using neutral flavored vodka instead.
  • Can I make a virgin Winter Holiday Cranberry Gin Cocktail? Among other things that 2020 brought with, it was a huge surge in non-alcoholic spirits. Feel free to swap in your favorite gin-adjacent for a sober-friendly mocktail.
  • Can I make this a little sweeter? Sure! I suggest using a squeeze of the cranberry syrup that is left over after making sugared cranberries. For more info on infusing simple syrups with flavors, check out my guide here!
