Ingredients Used to Make this Very Merry Mistletoe Cocktail

With only a few ingredients used, this mistletoe cocktail makes for the perfect hosting beverage. All you need is five minutes to combine 100% cranberry juice, fresh lemons, gin, and some fresh rosemary and cranberries for a fun holiday flavor. I love to serve this beverage in some of my favorite wine glasses, but will on occasion, also serve them in cocktail glasses. These beverages add a beautiful festive touch to any Christmas party!

And the best part? You can easily make this into a mocktail by simply removing the gin and adding more cranberry juice.

How to Prepare this Festive Drink

Using a muddler, press the fresh rosemary and cranberries in the bottom of a cocktail shaker. Then add the gin, cranberry juice, some ice, and freshly squeezed lemon juice. Shake well.

Pour over a glass of ice and stir well. You may garnish with more rosemary, cranberries, and a lemon slice if preferred, for a beautiful festive touch. That’s all there is to it – enjoy!

Looking for more fun and tasty alcoholic beverages to make? Some of my favorite beverages not only include this mistletoe cocktail, but also a Moscow mulemargarita, Brandy Manhattan, and old fashioned. These beverages may be consumed year-round, or can be made festive by adding fun garnishes.

If you’re looking for non-alcoholic beverages, try my Appletini mocktail or Sunset Sweets Mocktail. These also pair well with holiday brunches!
