25 Days of Christmas Cocktails - The Red Queen

I have been very remiss with Gin recipes, and the reason is simple: I only drink Hendricks, and I really don't like a lot of other favors interfering with the purity of this gin’s taste.  This cocktail is an exception, however, and with its color, makes an excellent choice to serve for the holidays. From Supergoldenbakes, serves 2.

100ml | 3 fl oz cranberry juice
80ml | 2.7 fl oz ( 1/3 cup) Hendricks gin
40ml | St Germain  (Elderflower liqueur)
juice of 1/2 lemon
fresh cranberries threaded on cocktail sticks to garnish

Fill your cocktail shaker with plenty of ice and add all the ingredients (apart from the fresh cranberries). Shake until a frost forms on the shaker – about 30 seconds.
Pour into chilled martini or coupe glasses and garnish with the fresh cranberries.
