This holiday season is going to be different, that’s the undeniable reality. But why not make the best of it. Even though I won’t be able to join in my usual festivities with family and friends I decided to create a cocktail that can also double as a gift idea. I have teamed up with my blogger friends at Seasons of Home to bring you our last post of the season, boo-hoo. Thank you to Ella Claire & Co. for hosting today’s entertaining post.
I have always wanted to make infused vodka so this was a great chance to try my hand at mixology. What I learned? It’s so simple and fun!
To make Holiday Infused Vodka you will need…
1 liter vodka, I used Titos
3 naval oranges, organic if you can find
1 bag frozen cranberries
whole cloves
cinnamon sticks
a sealed container
mason jars & ribbon if giving as a gift
1.Grate orange skin from 3 oranges, be sure to wash them. Add to container.
2. Add 2 cups of frozen cranberries, 1 tbsp. whole gloves, cinnamon sticks to container and top with vodka.
3. Seal and store in a dark place for 4-10 days.
4. Make cocktails with your spiced vodka or store in mason jars.
Ok, for the Spiced Orange Cranberry Spritzer…
Pour the spiced vodka over ice, add orange juice and top with a seltzer/club soda. Garnish and serve. It’s simple and refreshing!
To give as a gift tie a nice velvet ribbon (Target) around the seal tight jar and decorate it with fresh greens.
