Instructions
Making the Cranberry Blood-Orange Spritz is straightforward and quick when you follow these simple steps:
1. Juicing: Start by juicing fresh blood oranges until you have about one cup of juice. Strain to remove any pulp if you prefer a smoother texture.
2. Mix Juices: In a pitcher, combine the cranberry juice and blood orange juice. Stir until well mixed.
3. Add Simple Syrup: Incorporate the simple syrup into the juice mixture. Adjust the sweetness according to your taste by adding more or less syrup if desired.
4. Chill: Place the mixture in the refrigerator to chill for about 5-10 minutes. This ensures your spritz is served cold.
5. Prepare Glasses: Fill serving glasses with ice cubes, allowing for a refreshing experience.
6. Combine with Soda Water: Pour the chilled juice mixture over the ice-filled glasses, filling each glass halfway. Top each glass with soda water for that sparkling finish.
7. Garnish: Add a slice of blood orange and a few fresh cranberries into each glass for garnish.
8. Serve Immediately: Stir gently and serve your delicious Cranberry Blood-Orange Spritz while enjoying the delightful fizz.
