Notes
- Homemade or store bought cranberry juice can be used. Make sure you sweeten cranberry juice, otherwise it won't be pleasant to drink. It'll be too tart.
- Don’t use cheap alcohol. It will make the drink taste like methanol and rubbing alcohol.
- Always use freshly squeezed lime juice.
- Use frozen cranberries. Frozen fruits acts like ice which not only keeps the drink chilled but also makes cranberries float on top. Making it looks pretty!
