  • 2 cup sparkling water chilled
  • 2 cup ice
  • 4 lime wheels
  • 0.25 cup fresh cranberries

Equipment

  • 1 pitcher

Method
 

  1. Stir the cranberry juice cocktail, lime juice, and simple syrup together in a pitcher until combined.

  3. Divide the ice among 4 glasses.
  4. Pour the mocktail over the ice.
  5. Garnish each glass with a lime wheel and a few cranberries.

Notes

For the best fizz, stir in the sparkling water just before serving. Refrigerate any leftover mocktail for up to 1 day; it will lose carbonation. Freezing is not recommended. For a less sweet drink, use less simple syrup to taste.
