Cranberry Sauce Vodka Smash is a fun and festive holiday cocktail using a traditional holiday dish – cranberry sauce!
If you do happen to still have leftover sauce, you can just stay here while we wait for our friends to make more. ย We could even talk about what else you can do with it. ย Like, you could swirl it into pancakes, add it to some bars, or make some bread. ย Though right nowย I would highly recommend doing none of those. ย Let’s make cocktails instead!
These Cranberry Sauce Vodka Smash cocktails could not be any easier. ย With a mason jar (or a cocktail shaker if you’re fancy), all you do is shakeย leftover cranberry sauce and vodka with some ice. ย Then pour into cocktail glasses, and top with some sparkling water.
Oneย thing I really love about these is that you can control how sweet you want them with your choice of sparkling water. ย If you like a mildly sweet drink, add something like club soda or La Croix. ย If you want it on the sweeter side, add tonic water or Sprite.
