Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 ounces vodka
  • 1 ounce cranberry juice
  • 3/4 cup ginger beer
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 sprig rosemary
  • 1 handful cranberries
  • 1 slice lime
  • 1 cup crushed ice

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Fill the copper mug with crushed ice.
  2. Add the lime juice, cranberry juice, and vodka. Give it a quick stir.
  3. Add the ginger beer and give another stir.
  4. Garnish with the sprig of rosemary, lime slice, and cranberries. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • For a stronger drink, add another ounce of vodka.
  • Rum is sometimes used as a variation, so if you don't have vodka, feel free to try the rum.
  • To make this non-alcoholic, eliminate the vodka and either add more ginger beer, or seltzer (plain or cranberry seltzer would pair well).  Ginger beer is not alcoholic, despite its name.
  • Copper mugs really add to the presentation here, so if you can find them, use them.  If not, this can be served in a rocks glass or stemless wine glass.
