  • Muddling and straining take a while but well worth it. Added 1 TBL simple syrup to 3 drinks in shaker. 1-2TBL seems right for simple syrup. — ★★★★★
  • Made this with Paririe gin and Ferrand dry curacao. Cranberries were a spoonful of cranberry-syrup-solids rather than fresh. Did not have ginger, but didn't miss it. Very tasty, a refreshing profile in the winter.
  • Really tasty, better than the plain cranberry gin smash that was a previous favorite. — ★★★★

The linked recipe adds superfine sugar or simple syrup to the muddle. I made it without and thought it very nice and balanced without the additional sweetener.
