Well friends, Thanksgiving is over and you’ve got a smorgasbord of food crammed in the fridge. You’re probably wondering what the heck to do with all of that delicious cranberry sauce because, let’s face it, you always seem to make too much every year. Well fret not! We here at Raise The Bar have the perfect solution—make it into a tasty cocktail!

For this holiday quaff, I (JP) wanted to do something quick and easy to offset the exhaustive amount of time already spent in the kitchen, so I decided to do a riff on the crowd-pleasing Moscow Mule. The cranberry and ginger flavors play well together and Portland newcomers was the perfect vodka to use as the base. The company filters their spirit through Pacific Northwest timber and hazelnut charcoal, resulting in a perfect flavor combination to keep you jolly all season long.

The Saucy Mule
1.5 oz Headwind Vodka
1 spoonful cranberry sauce (homemade preferred)75 oz Fresh Lime
Dash of house-made Rosemary syrup
Shaken + topped with Fever Tree Ginger Beer

DM me for the Rosemary syrup recipe!

Oh, and Haley would like to add that this is also delicious when served without vodka as a mocktail. The baby currently growing has her out of the liquor game...for now.
