Cranberry Bourbon Cocktail

I can’t believe it’s almost August…which means it’s almost Fall…which means it’s almost the holidays…What?! Well here’s a simple drink recipe that’s perfect for now, and especially for holiday season. It’s a cranberry bourbon cocktail and it’s quite tasty!

I think bourbon is one of those spirits that typically appeals more to men than women, however I’m one of those women who loves a bourbon drink; bourbon and ginger ale to be exact. This cocktail takes that combo a step further with the addition of cranberry juice. The cranberry adds a tartness and cuts the sweetness. This drink tastes great alongside a salty snack.

Add frozen cranberries to the drink for a pretty garnish and to help chill it without diluting it. If you’re hosting a guys night or celebrating your man’s birthday, this would make a terrific signature cocktail for the night.
