Make a Cranberry Moscow Mule - Step by Step

Fill a cocktail shaker with ice and add vodka, cranberry juice, and lime juice.

How to Make the Cranberry Sprig Garnish

To make the cranberry sprig garnish that you see in the phoots, carefully thread 3 fresh cranberries onto the bottom of a woody rosemary stem.

Around the holidays, you can often find live potted Rosemary plants, which are perfect to have on hand for making pretty garnishes and cooking. I pick one up nearly every year.
