Cranberry Cocktail Garnishes for Your Holiday Entertaining!

As Thanksgiving quickly approaches, Holiday party planning goes into overdrive and things get hectic! Don't forget the smallest details will make your party the most successful. Your guests will be sure to remember all of your finishing touches and all the hard work you put into planning the perfect Thanksgiving celebration. When planning your Thanksgiving cocktails, we recommend considering cranberries for festive tasty cocktail garnishes!

Here are some ways you can use cranberries to garnish your cocktails this Holiday season.

One of our favorite cranberry cocktails with cranberry garnish is the Cranberry Mojito recipe developed by WeAreNotMartha.com


Simply garnish the cocktail with mint leaves and several fresh cranberries. The mint and fresh cranberries enhance the flavors found in the cocktail (the muddled mint and cranberry syrup).

Another favorite way to garnish with cranberries is to put them on a string so the garnish is even more ornamental and decorative!


BaysideBride.com also suggests using a toothpick to "string" the cranberries if a short piece of string isn't available.

We also like the idea of keeping it simple and hassle-free! For an easy drink, serve a Crantini in a martini glass and garnish the side with a few fresh cranberries. This is an elegant and easy option that will still WOW your guests!
