Instructions

Making the Cordial: Combine the listed ingredients in a pot, heat until it reaches a light boil, agitating so the sugar melts. After that, remove from the stove and leave to cool down fully. Decant to a clean bottle, cap it and refrigerate it chilled, it will last for around one month.

For the Premix: Combine the specified liquid ingredients into one big jug, leave to sit for 60 minutes, then strain best through muslin, to ensure it's fully clarified.

For serving: Add 85ml of your cocktail base to a stirring glass packed with ice, gently stirring lightly for about 60 seconds to chill. Pour into an frosted cocktail glass or a similar vessel, top with a few cranberries and complete it by giving it a light spray of the essential oil over the top.
