Ingredients

1 ½ oz Vodka

1 ½ oz Spiced Cranberry Orange Syrup

½ oz Fresh Lime Juice

5 oz Q Ginger Beer

1 Mint Sprig

Powdered Sugar

Method

Cranberry-Orange Syrup: combine 1 cup of sugar, 1 cup of cranberry juice, peel from 1 orange, cinnamon stick, and 2 cloves in a small saucepan and simmer for twenty minutes. Let the mixture cool and strain into an empty bottle.⠀
⠀⠀
In a shaker add vodka, lime juice, and syrup; shake with ice. Strain into an ice-filled highball glass. Top with chilled Q Ginger Beer. Garnish with a powdered sugar sprig of mint.

PRO TIP

Add a spicy salt rim by mixing salt and jalapeno. Run a lime along the rim of a highball glass, then dip the rim into the salt mixture. For a smokier drink try mezcal rather than tequila. A tiny splash of agave is a fun way to add some sweetness
