It’s my favorite time of year! There’s something about starting fresh… starting new that I absolutely love. What better way to spread cheer than Jingle Juice!

Next year, 2021, I’m looking forward to Spring. I can’t wait to visit the local flower fields to photograph California’s state flower; the poppy. Or the ranunculus fields down in San Diego, California. But you’re here for the Jingle Juice, not the flowers!

We invited our close friends over for a very small, intimate, Christmas celebration. We had gingerbread cookies and a hot cocoa bar for the kids and Jingle Juice and a friendly game of Cards Against Humanity.

This Jingle Juice recipe is so easy to make. The flavor is refreshing and delicious, and it’s absolutely beautiful with little effort! Everyone is sure to love this delicious and festive beverage.

Jingle Juice Recipe

64 Ounces Cran-Apple Juice
1 750-ml White Moscato
1 750-ml bottle Prosecco
2 Cups Vodka
2 12 oz bags Fresh Cranberries (for four people)
1 package mint leaves
1 Orange sliced
1 Cinnamon Stick per person
1/2 C granulated sugar, for rimming glasses
1 lime, sliced into rounds

Combine all liquid ingredients in a beverage dispenser like this one from Target. It made self serve so easy!

I absolutely loved putting this drink together. All the little garnishes made me so happy! I sliced an orange and dried it a few days prior to the dinner. I used a dehydrator but you can use the oven as well. Just stick it in the oven at 135ºF until crisp and leathery.

Start by sugaring the rim of the glass. Then add one Cinnamon Stick and one Orange Slice, 1/3C of frozen Cranberries, and a few leaves of mint. Finally, fill the glass with Jingle Juice to your desired amount.

Drink responsibly!
