Cocktail

2 oz vodka (preferably citron or plain)1 oz triple sec (or Cointreau)1 oz cranberry juice (100% unsweetened)1/2 oz Fresh lime juice1/4 oz simple syrup (optional, for sweetness balance)1 cup ice

Garnish

1 to taste lime twist or thin lime wheel

Method

Cocktail

Prepare and chill glass

If desired, chill a coupe or martini glass by placing it in the freezer for 5–10 minutes or filling it with ice water while you prepare the cocktail.

Combine ingredients

Fill a cocktail shaker with ice (about 3/4 full). Add 2 oz vodka, 1 oz triple sec, 1 oz cranberry juice, 0.5 oz fresh lime juice, and 0.25 oz simple syrup if you prefer a slightly sweeter drink.

Shake

Secure the shaker lid and shake vigorously for 10–15 seconds until the shaker is well-chilled and the exterior becomes frosty.

Strain

Discard the ice or water from the chilled glass. Using a fine or standard cocktail strainer, strain the cocktail into the chilled coupe or martini glass to remove ice shards.

Garnish

Express the oils of a lime twist over the surface of the cocktail by holding the twist over the drink and giving it a quick fold or twist so the citrus oils spray onto the surface. Optionally rub the twist on the rim, then drop it into the cocktail or hang a thin lime wheel on the glass edge.
