- 1/2 oz Spiced Cranberry Syrup
- 2 oz Fresh Orange Juice
- 2 Dashes of Angostura Bitters
Instructions

- How to Make Cranberry Spiced Syrup:
- In a medium sauce pan, combine 1 cup of water, 1 cup of cranberries, 2-3 broken up cinnamon sticks and 2-3 star anise. Bring to a light simmer until the cranberries start to break and release juices. You can press them down as they start to break to facilitate the process. Reduce the heat, and pour in 2 cups of sugar and lightly stir to dissolve. Turn off the stove, and let the syrup sit for an hour or so to cool. Strain out the solid ingredients and store the syrup in a glass container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
