Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

Cranberry-Thyme Syrup:
6 sprigs thyme
1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries
1/4 cup sugar
Assembly:
2 ounces fresh lemon juice
1 ounce Campari
12 ounces Champagne or dry sparkling wine
Fresh cranberries (for serving)

Steps:

  • Cranberry-Thyme Syrup:
  • Cook thyme, cranberries, sugar, and 1/4 cup water in a small saucepan over low, swirling pan occasionally, just until sugar is dissolved and cranberries have released their color, 12-15 minutes (do not reduce liquid). Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a heatproof bowl or measuring cup and let cool (you should have 4 oz.).
  • Assembly:
  • For each cocktail, combine 1 oz. cranberry-thyme syrup, 1/2 oz. lemon juice, and 1/4 oz. Campari in an ice-filled cocktail shaker. Cover and shake vigorously until the outside of shaker is very cold, about 20 seconds. Strain into a chilled coupe glass and top with 3 oz. Champagne; garnish with 3 cranberries on a skewer.
  • Do Ahead
  • Syrup can be made 2 weeks ahead. Cover and chill.

I'm not a fan of cranberries, but I actually enjoyed this dessert. The mousse was very light and the cranberry sauce was not too tart.

This was my first time making cranberry royale and it turned out great! I was worried it would be too difficult, but it was actually quite easy.

This recipe is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend reducing the amount of sugar in the mousse.

Disappointed. The mousse was too dense and the cranberry sauce was too tart. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

Easy to follow and turned out great! I'm not much of a baker, but this recipe was simple enough for me to handle. The mousse was light and fluffy, and the cranberry sauce added a nice tartness.
