A 2 Ingredient Christmas Cocktail you’ll Love!

Here’s a 2 ingredient cocktail you’ll fall in love with this Christmas!

Why do we love it so much?  It’s easy to make (just 2 ingredients), it looks festive (it’s red!) and it tastes like a party (even if the party is just you).

Joyful Hostess Tip: Amp up the party factor in this drink, with cranberry ice cubes.  To make these, simply add 1-2 cranberries in each section of your ice cube tray.  Fill with water and freeze.  Cranberries will float to the top. Once frozen they will be half in the cube and halfway out. 

If you want cranberries fully encased in ice, complete steps as above except only half fill the tray with water and freeze.  Once this half is frozen, top off with more water and freeze again. The cranberries will now be fully covered.
