Reviews
can i add strawberry instead of cranberry?
I agree that the amount of cranberry was too much. I think it’s off by a factor of about 10. I readjusted the recipe as follows and feel it’s pretty good. Two parts vodka, one part triple sec, one part orange juice, one part cranberry juice and one to two parts ginger ale.
It was way to strong on the cranberry juice. Sorry was a disappointment for our NYE party.
Made this punch for New Years Eve. Was a hit! Delicious!
