Cranberry Gin Fizz
This clean, holiday inspired cocktail is rich in antioxidants and is a great appetizer drink before a meal as it will also aid in digestion. Gin as a digestif. Gin is always a great choice for a cocktail, and even if you don’t like the flavor of it straight, the herbacious essence is often muted in a well mixed drink, and it should just come off as a “refreshing” flavor. First, gin is probably the cleanest burning of all liquor options (one could also add tequila to this discussion), making it less likely to cause a hangover, and is easiest on your body to process. The juniper and some of the herbs that are added to gin also classify gin as a “bitter” which means it’s a digestif, making any gin cocktail a true digestive aid before a big meal. Cranberries add a nutrient rich, seasonal touch. Cranberries are such a classic holiday seasonal fruit, and are loaded with vitamins, minerals, and anti-aging antioxidants like polyphenols and resveratrol. Use a pure, organic cranberry juice for this cocktail to ensure the cleanest, healthiest juice as a mixer. Furthermore, cranberries, having a bitterness to them, also act as a complementary digestif to the gin.
