Tipsy-mas Day 3! Cranberry-Orange Gin Smash Recipe

On the third day of Christmas, Tipsy Theory gave to me a cranberry gin recipe.

With the holiday season right around the corner, it’s time add a little twist to your favourite classic drinks.

While gin smashes are often a popular summer drink, we’ve added a little twist that makes it scream Christmas.

With cranberries and hints of orange, you will definitely be reaching for a second, and maybe even a third, glass.

The best part about this recipe, is that it’s also super easy to make. So it’s the perfect quick fix for your next holiday party.

All you need is some frozen cranberries, oranges, gin and a cranberry flavoured soda and you’ll have a festive drink made in seconds.

Happy sipping!
