Equipment

Mixing glass or cocktail shaker and strainer

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 oz Rum - your favorite brand
  • 1 1/2 oz Cranberry Juice
  • 1/2 oz Simple Syrup - see notes
  • 1/2 oz Orange Juice - fresh squeezed
  • Orange Zest
  • Prosecco - or champagne/sparkling wine

Instructions
 

  • Start off by dipping the rim of your coupe or matini glass in a little bit of the chilled simple syrup. Dip it very lightly. Now dip the rim of the same glass into some orange sanding sugar. Set this aside on the counter or in the freezer to set.
  • Now prepare your cocktail. In a shaker or mixing glass, add ice and combine cranberry juice, orange juice, simple syrup, orange zest, and rum in a cocktail shaker. Cover and shake until thoroughly chilled through.
  • Strain the mixture into your orange sugar rimmed cocktail glass, top off with chilled Prosecco or sparkling wine and garnish with an orange twist.

Notes

To make simple syrup, combine 1 cup of water and 1 cup of sugar (or equal parts) in a pot and heat until combined.  Chill and store in an air-tight container.  Use to sweeten teas and cocktails.
