Cranberry Rob Roy
Ingredients
Instructions
- Boil ingredients for simple syrup on low heat until cranberries burst and cook down. Be patient - this process might take a while! If you cook the cranberries on too high of heat, the might explode a bit wildly and spray you.
- Once the cranberries have cooked down into a smooth, sauce-like consistency (yes! this process is not unlike making cranberry sauce) remove from heat and strain remaining fruit pieces out using a mesh strainer.
- Cool simple syrup to room temperature until you're ready to use it. I always speed this process up with the freezer because I'm impatient for cocktail time.
- Add ice to a cocktail shaker with 1 ounce simple syrup, 1 ounce sweet vermouth and 2 ounces scotch. Garnish with a few fresh cranberries for extra tartness and color, and add a dash of bitters.
