Ingredients
- ROSEMARY CRANBERRY SIMPLE SYRUP:
- 1/2 cup Water
- 1/2 cup Honey
- Fresh Rosemary Sprigs

- CRANBERRY MOSCOW MULE:
- 1 32 oz jar R. W. Knudsen Just Cranberry Juice
- 1 4 pack Non-Alcoholic Ginger Beer
- Blue Ice Handcrafted American Potato Vodka (gluten free)
- 1 Lime, freshly squeezed juice (divided)

Instructions
- Rosemary Cranberry Simple Syrup: In a small pot, warm the water to almost boiling. Remove from heat and stir in the honey until fully dissolved. Add 1-2 fresh rosemary sprigs and a small handful of fresh cranberries. Cover and let steep until it is completely cool. (I like to let it steep for at least an hour). Discard the rosemary and cranberries.
- Cranberry Moscow Mule without simple syrup: To each copper mug, add ice, 2 oz vodka, 2 oz cranberry juice and the juice from half a lime. Stir to combine. Top with ginger beer, stir gently, and garnish with a lime wedge and a couple cranberries.
- Cranberry Moscow Mule with Rosemary Cranberry Simple Syrup: To each copper mug, add ice, 2 oz vodka, 2 oz cranberry juice, 2-3 tablespoons simple syrup and the juice from half a lime. Stir to combine. Top with ginger beer, stir gently, and garnish with a rosemary sprig and a couple cranberries.
Notes
- Flavored Simple Syrup: This will last for about a week in the fridge.
