Ingredients
1 cup cranberry juice
1/2 cup carbonated water (such as club soda or sparkling water)
1/4 cup simple syrup (adjust to taste)
1–2 fresh limes (juiced, plus extra slices for garnish)
Ice cubes
Fresh cranberries (for garnish, optional)
Fresh mint leaves (for garnish, optional)
Instructions
1. Fill each glass halfway with ice cubes.
2. In a pitcher, combine the cranberry juice, lime juice, and simple syrup. Stir well to blend the flavors.
3. Just before serving, add the carbonated water to the cranberry-lime mixture. Gently stir to keep the bubbles lively.
4. Pour the mocktail into glasses and garnish with fresh cranberries, a slice of lime, and a sprig of mint.
5. Serve immediately and enjoy this zesty, festive drink while it’s chilled and bubbly!
Notes
To make simple syrup, combine equal parts water and sugar in a saucepan over medium heat until dissolved, then cool before using.
For an extra chill, freeze fresh cranberries and use them instead of ice cubes.
Can be doubled or tripled for parties; mix base in advance and add sparkling water right before serving.
