Sparkling Cranberry Tea Cocktails

Author Vianney Rodriguez

Ingredients

  • 4 cups water
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 family-sized tea bags
  • 2 1/2 cups no-sugar-added cranberry juice
  • 1 cup vodka
  • 1/4 cup Grand Marnier
  • 4 cups ginger ale chilled
  • Orange rind strips optional

Instructions

  1. Combine 4 cups water and sugar in a large saucepan; bring to a boil. Cook until sugar dissolves, stirring occasionally. Pour over tea bags. Cover and let stand 5 minutes; discard tea bags. Cool. Stir in juice, vodka, and Grand Marnier; chill. Gently stir in ginger ale. Serve over ice; garnish with rind, if desired.

Recipe Notes

This is a fine make-ahead recipe for a Holiday party. Combine the ingredients through step one and chill; stir in the ginger ale just before serving. Serve in goblets, highball glasses, or any pretty clear glasses to show off the concoction's yuletide-red hue.
