Reviews
I love this network and the hosts. I only wish they would make cocktails and other recipes with easy to find ingredients. Not everyone lives in NYC. I live in Austin and have to go on a hunt via the internet for ‘unfiltered’ cranberry juice. I’m sure it is a great recipe but I will be using unsweetened juice for this NYE and surely it will be just as good. Love ya GZ!!!
I have never had one bad recipe from GZ! He is one of my favorite chefs. Had this as one of my signature cocktail. Crisp and refreshing! Must try!
Yeah
Made a large batch (~1 gallon) for our holiday party. Instead of dried cranberries as garnish, used fresh frozen cranberries to help keep it cold for the party’s duration. It was a big hit – will be making this again.
Made these for Thanksgiving and they went over very well. Super quick to put together and uses very simple ingredients, I can see them becoming a staple.
Made this for Thanksgiving and it was a hit! Very delicious and refreshing!
