- 0.5 oz Simple syrup
- Ice, for shaking

- Shake: Secure the shaker lid and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until the mixture is well chilled and combined.

- Garnish and Serve: Garnish with fresh cranberries or a lime wedge for a festive touch, and serve immediately.
Notes
- Adjust the simple syrup quantity to your preferred sweetness level.
- Use fresh lime juice for the best flavor.
- Rimming the glass with sugar or salt can add an extra layer of taste if desired.
- For a frozen version, blend all ingredients with ice instead of shaking.
- Substitute cranberry juice cocktail with 100% cranberry juice for a less sweet, more tart drink.
