    (100% cranberry juice for tart, cranberry cocktail for sweeter)

  • Orange slice or orange peel, fresh cranberries, rosemary sprig (optional for garnish)

    Optional (to make it a cocktail):

    • Prosecco (to top)

  2. Pour in the cranberry juice.

  5. Garnish with an orange slice or peel, fresh cranberries, and a rosemary sprig if using.

Notes

  • Use non-alcoholic ginger beer. This is what gives the drink its warm, cozy ginger flavor.

  • Ginger ale can be used if you prefer a sweeter, milder drink.

  • To keep the drink bubbly, add the ginger beer right before serving.

  • Kid-friendly: non-alcoholic ginger beer is safe for kids — just expect a little “spicy” ginger bite.
