Ingredients

  • 3 oz cranberry juice cocktail*
  • 1 oz vodka
  • 1 oz Grand Marnier (or orange liqueur of choice)
  • ½ oz lemon juice

Instructions

  • Pour into a martini glass, garnish, and enjoy!

Notes

Recipe Substitutions and Variations:
*You can use 100% cranberry juice instead of cranberry juice cocktail if desired. I recommend adding a splash of simple syrup or agave syrup if doing this to help sweeten your drink. Start with ½-1 teaspoon of sweetener and adjust to taste.
*If preferred, a citrus flavored vodka, or citron vodka, can be used in this recipe. If you choose to use this, omit the lemon juice in the recipe.
*Use lime juice instead of lemon juice.
 
Other orange liqueur options includes: Triple Sec or Cointreau.
