But to really get this one right, you need to hunt down two crucial ingredients: Shrub & Co.’s Cranberry Shrub and Bitterman’s Orange Cream Citrate. For the most part, I try to create drinks that are simple, seasonal, and don’t force you to take out a second mortgage on your home. Now, disclosure: this cocktail requires a little more investment than many of the recipes on The Shared Sip. Perfect for Christmas dinner, New Year’s Eve, or when you’re up slapping presents together at midnight on the 24th. What I love about this cranberry variation is that it appeals to, I think, a wider audience-the shrub cuts the intensity down a bit and it makes for a great sip. It’s very spirit-forward, but mellowed out by the sweet vermouth. Have you ever had a boulevardier? Truth be told, I sipped my first only very recently, and fell in love immediately. They were making it for their Thanksgiving celebrations, and knew I had to try it out on my own.
I got this cocktail recipe from our wonderful neighbors in Oakland, Austin and Lauren (if you’re reading this: hi guys! we miss you!!). Add this delicious cocktail to my list of accomplishments, and BOOM! Mic drop. Oh, and, I sent Christmas cards for the first time ever! We had so many great photos from our wedding, that card practically made itself. Of course I still have a few small things to pick up, but somehow I mostly had my act together this year. Christmas is less than one week away! Usually at this time, I’m running around the greater Northern California area hunting down presents for literally everyone in my family.
