The Mistletoe Kiss Cocktail

INGREDIENTS

FOR THE ROSEMARY SIMPLE SYRUP*:

½ cup water
½ cup granulated sugar
1 sprig rosemary

FOR A SMALL BATCH:

6 oz vodka (I love Tito's)
1 oz freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 oz rosemary simple syrup
Club soda
Handful of fresh cranberries (whole frozen berries are ok)
2 sprigs of rosemary

FOR A LARGE BATCH:

30 oz vodka (3 ¾ cups or approx 1 liter from which you'll have a couple ounces leftover)
5 oz freshly squeezed lemon juice
10 oz (1 ¼ cups) rosemary simple syrup (triple the recipe above)
1 liter club soda
½ bag of fresh cranberries (whole frozen berries are ok)
10 sprigs of rosemary


INSTRUCTIONS

• To make a small batch: Pour vodka, lemon juice, and simple syrup into a drink shaker filled with ice. Cover and shake well to blend. Divide drink mix between 2 rocks glasses filled with ice, straining the ice from the shaker as you pour. You'll only want to fill the glasses ¾-full. Top with club soda and a few cranberries for garnish. Add a sprig of rosemary to use as a stirrer.
• To make a large batch: Pour vodka, lemon juice, and simple syrup into a pitcher filled with ice and stir well to combine.
• When ready to serve, pour the drink mix into an ice-filled rocks glass to ¾-full. Top each drink with club soda and a few cranberries for garnish. Add a sprig of rosemary to each drink as they are served to use as a stirrer.
• If you make the large batch before your guests arrive, be sure to keep the pitcher in the fridge to ensure the drinks are icy cold when they arrive.
