Instructions
Make drinks
- To a cocktail shaker, add ice, cranberry juice, orange juice, whiskey, lemon juice, triple sec, simple syrup, and 2 sprigs of thyme (or rosemary). Cover and shake well, for about 5-10 seconds.

- Add ice to two glasses, and strain and pour the drink from the cocktail shaker evenly between the two glasses.
- Top each glass with approximately 2 oz of the ginger beer and garnish with frozen cranberries, orange peel, and a sprig of thyme (or rosemary) in each glass.
Notes
- Crowded Kitchen
- Larger batch:
- Recipe should make approximately 20 oz, which I've divided up into 2 (10 oz each) cocktails. However, please feel free to divide the recipe up into whichever size drink you'd like.
- Recipe adapted from Crowded Kitchen
- For a party or large gathering, I would recommend quadrupling the recipe (multiply all ingredients by 4), which would require an 85 oz or larger pitcher.
- However, you can make a large batch with any multiple of the recipe, you just want to make sure you have a large enough pitcher to hold everything.
- Multiply all ingredients (except the ginger beer and garnishes) by whichever multiple you'd like, and add them to a pitcher. Stir well, cover, and refrigerate for several hours, up to 1-2 days.
- When ready to serve, stir really well, and pour over ice into glasses. Top off glasses with the ginger beer, add garnishes and serve!
