Equipment

  • Cocktail mixer
  • Fillable glass ornaments
  • Small funnel

Ingredients
  

  • 1½ oz cranberry juice
  • ¾ oz Triple Sec
  • 1 oz vodka
  • ¼ oz lemon juice
  • fresh cranberries for garnish
  • 1 sprig rosemary for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Mix the Cocktail: Combine cranberry juice, triple sec, lemon juice, and vodka in a mixer with ice. Stir until chilled.
  • Fill the Ornament: Use a funnel to pour about 3 oz of the cocktail into a 4 oz glass ornament. Fill carefully to avoid spills.
  • Seal It Up: Secure the lid of the ornament tightly. Wipe it down if there are any drips.
  • Prepare the Glass: Place a few fresh cranberries and a sprig of rosemary in a coupe glass for garnish. This will support the ornament.
  • Set the Ornament: Nestle the filled ornament into the coupe glass. It should sit comfortably without tipping.
  • Serve: When ready to drink, your guests can remove the lid and pour the cocktail from the ornament into the coupe.

Notes

Important Safety Tips:
Check for Cracks or Chips: Always inspect ornaments for cracks or chips before filling. Even small imperfections can cause breakage when handling.
Secure the Lid Properly: Make sure the ornament lid is on tightly before serving. This prevents spills and ensures the drink stays contained.
Don’t Hold by the Loop: Avoid holding the ornament by its loop string, especially when filled. The ornament can become heavy, and the loop may not support the weight, causing it to fall. Always handle the ornament by its body for better stability.
