Ingredients
- Cranberry juice or pomegranate cranberry juice: Look for 100% juice blend. Not 100% cranberry juice alone but a blend of cranberry, apple, grape etc. Don’t use cranberry juice cocktail which is usually only about 20% juice with a lot of added sugar.
- Pineapple juice: I like to use Dole not from concentrate in the can.
- Almond extract: You can find this by the vanilla extract in the baking isle.
- Ginger ale: For more natural flavor I recommend avoiding diet (with artificial sugar sweeteners) unless it’s for diet restrictions.
- Fresh cranberries and limes: These ingredients are optional for decorative use. Keep in mind you’ll only want add cranberries if you are using a dispenser, you don’t want people ladling cranberries into drink cups which would be a potential choking hazard especially for kids.
- Ice: If you used well chilled juices and soda you don’t necessarily have to add this.
Steps
- 1 Pour cranberry juice, pineapple juice, and almond extract into a large drink dispenser and mix.
- 2 Pour in ginger ale and give it one quick stir.
- 3 Add in cranberries, ice and ginger ale.
- 4 Add 3oz of Dark Rum
- If you like it super bubbly then serve within a few hours as it can start to go flat.
