I am always looking for a delicious refreshing cocktail. I typically serve wine or sangria when I host parties, but really wanted to branch out, and serve something more festive for my winter parties this year. The problem I have with most cocktails is, sometimes they taste so sugary, I cannot finish them! This delicious Cranberry Champagne Cocktail is the so light and delicious all your guests will be going back for seconds… and dare I say thirds!
Makes 16 servings, or a large punch bowl
INGREDIENTS
- 3 cups of cranberry cocktail
- 1 cup of orange flavored liquor (like Grand Marnier or Contreau)
- 2 bottles of sparkling wine or champagne
- 24 ounces of ginger ale
- 24 ounces of 7 Up
- bag of cranberries
- raw sugar or gold sprinkles to rim the cups
- 2 lemons
DIRECTIONS
- Combine cranberry cocktail, orange liquor, and champagne in the punch bowl. Stir until mixed.
- Pour in the ginger ale and 7 Up and stir until combined.
- Top with the bag of cranberries and mix in ice if you want it chilled.
- Cut the lemons in slices and rub the lemon juice on the rim of your champagne or wine glasses. Dip the glasses with the lemon juice in the raw sugar or gold sprinkles.
- Pour, serve, sip, and enjoy!
