Pink Peppercorn Cranberry Cocktail

Happy New Year, everyone!

In celebration of an exciting 2014, I’d like to share with you a winter cocktail I created with a variety of seasonal ingredients. It’s a great way to use those leftover cranberries!

Shake together and serve over ice:

  • 3 parts gin
  • 3 parts simple syrup
  • 2 parts berry/peppercorn reduction*
  • 1 part lemon juice
  • splash of seltzer

*For the berries, I combined a little over half a pound of fresh cranberries, red currants and a teaspoon of pink peppercorns. I boiled this in a cup of water until the berries had burst, let the mixture cool, then put the syrup through a strainer to remove seeds and skins.

Enjoy!
