Recipe: Festive Rose Mocktail (Alcohol-Free)
Ingredients
-
1 cup cranberry juice (100% juice, unsweetened)
-
½ cup pomegranate juice or rose syrup (for colour and depth)
-
½ cup freshly squeezed orange juice
-
Sparkling water or non-alcoholic sparkling rosé
-
Ice cubes or crushed ice
For Garnish
-
Fresh cranberries (lightly dusted with sugar)
-
Fresh rosemary sprigs
-
Orange peel or lemon twist (optional)
Method
Begin by filling a shaker or jug with ice. Pour in the cranberry juice, pomegranate juice or rose syrup, and fresh orange juice. Stir gently to combine, allowing the flavours to blend without losing freshness.
Fill a luxury glass or coupe with crushed ice. Slowly pour the juice mixture over the ice, filling the glass about three-quarters full. Top with sparkling water or non-alcoholic sparkling rosé for a light, celebratory finish.
Garnish with a rosemary sprig and a few sugared cranberries resting gently on top. For extra elegance, add a thin twist of orange peel to release its aroma.
