The Golden Mead Cocktail

A refreshing and slightly sweet cocktail that combines the smooth warmth of vodka with the fruity tang of cranberry and the floral sweetness of honey liqueur. Perfect for a cozy evening or festive gathering.

Ingredients

• 30 ml Cranberry juice
• 20 ml Lemon juice
• 50 ml Honey Liqueur
• Sparkling water (or dry prosecco for a spritz)
• 40 ml Vodka (Optional)

Instructions

1. Fill a shaker with ice. Add honey liqueur, cranberry juice, and lemon juice (and vodka, if using).
2. Shake for 12 seconds — until the shaker is cold to the touch.
3. Double-strain into a chilled coupe glass.
4. Top with a splash of sparkling water. Don't stir — let it settle.
5. Garnish with a thin lemon wheel or a few fresh cranberries.
