Thursday Night Cocktail: Winter Dreams Cocktail


Recipe and Photo from Nutmeg Nanny

Lately, every festive holiday cocktail I have come across has been nothing but peppermint, chocolate and Baileys. Don't get me wrong, I love those drinks, but tonight I am in the mood for something a bit more refreshing. 

Ingredients

1 1/2 ounces mandarin orange vodka
1/2 ounce Cointreau (orange liqueur)
1/2 ounce fresh squeezed lemon juice
Seltzer water - chilled
Fresh cranberries and mint for garnish

Directions

In a tall cocktail glass add ice and pour in vodka, Cointreau and lemon juice. Fill to the top with seltzer water and gently stir. Add in fresh cranberries and mint for garnish

Cheers! Christmas is less than one week away!
