Ingredients
- 2 oz gin
- 1 oz elderflower liqueur
- 1/2 oz white cranberry juice
- Fresh thyme sprig for garnish
Directions
In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, add 2 oz of gin, 1 oz of elderflower liqueur, and 1/2 oz of white cranberry juice.
Secure the shaker lid and shake the mixture vigorously for about 15-20 seconds. This ensures that the ingredients are well-mixed and the drink is nicely chilled.
Discard the ice from the chilled martini glass. Using a strainer, pour the shaken mixture into the glass.
Garnish the cocktail with a fresh thyme sprig. This not only adds a festive touch but also enhances the aromatic experience of the drink.
Add the gin, fresh cranberry juice, fresh lemon juice, and simple syrup to the shaker.
Shake well until the mixture is thoroughly chilled.
Strain the cocktail into a chilled glass filled with ice.
Top off the glass with soda water to your desired level of fizziness.
Garnish your Cranberry Gin Fizz with a few fresh cranberries and a twist of lemon for an elegant touch.
