Time 8h40m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups apple cider, or more as needed
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3 cups cranberry juice cocktail
1 1/2 cups vodka
1/2 cup orange juice

1 cup fresh cranberries

Steps:

  • Fill two ice cube trays with apple cider and freeze 8 hours or overnight. You may need a bit more or less of the cider, depending on the ice cube tray that you use.
  • Meanwhile, heat the sugar, cinnamon and 1/3 cup water in a saucepan over medium heat, whisking the entire time. Cook until the mixture begins to bubble, then remove it from the heat. Allow it cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes.

Stir well and refrigerate for a few hours before serving-this will marry the flavors. Before serving, add the apple cider ice cubes and cranberries to the bowl or pitcher.
