CHRISTMAS MULES

Steps:

• Fill a 20-ounce cocktail shaker halfway with crushed ice. Add the vodka, lime juice, blood orange juice and grenadine. Put on the lid and shake thoroughly for 15 to 20 seconds so the flavors combine and chill with the ice.
• Add a few ice cubes to a 16-ounce copper Moscow mule mug, if you have one, or a glass. Strain the liquid over the ice cubes. Top up the mug or glass with ginger beer. Garnish with mint sprigs, blood orange slices and Candied Cranberries.
• Place a sheet of parchment paper on a sheet pan.
• Pour 3/4 cup water and 3/4 cup of the sugar into a saucepan, bring to a boil and simmer on a low heat for 3 minutes. Stir to ensure the sugar has dissolved into the water and the result is a syrup consistency.
• Add the cranberries to the pan and stir so they are covered in the syrup. Remove the pan from the heat and stir for 1 minute. Using a slotted spoon, remove the cranberries from the pan and add them to the prepared sheet pan. Allow the cranberries to cool and dry, about 1 hour.
• Pour the remaining sugar into a bowl. Add the cranberries and toss until they are thoroughly coated in the sugar. Store in an airtight container until ready to use.

YULE MULE COCKTAIL

Steps:

• Juice 6 limes. Cut remaining 3 limes into small wedges. Pour vodka and 1 cup lime juice into a carafe or jug. Stir to combine.
• Half-fill twelve 300ml (10 oz) capacity glasses with crushed ice. Pour over 1/3 cup vodka mixture. Top with ginger beer and lime wedges. Serve.
• Note- You can sub ginger ale for the ginger beer, but it won't have as much kick - try Vernors if you do.
