Ingredients

  • 1 liter cranberry juice (about 4 cups)
  • 1/2 liter apple juice (about 2 cups)
  • 1/3 cup strawberry-flavoured syrup (grenadine bar syrup also works)
  • 3/4 to 1 liter sparkling water or champagne (or your favourite sparkling wine, 7up, ginger ale, or any other sparkling beverage works here)
  • fresh or frozen cranberries, fresh blueberries, fresh strawberries for garnish
  • water and sugar for rimming the glasses (optional)

Instructions

  • Add the cranberry juice, apple juice, and strawberry syrup to a large pitcher and stir well until combined.
  • Rim glasses with sugar by moistening the rim of the glass with water and then dipping the rim of the glass in sugar (place some sugar on a plate). 
  • Fill each glass half full with the juice mixture and add a few berries to each glass as well, placing a strawberry on the rim of each glass.
  • Top it up with the sparkling water, champagne or other sparkling beverage of your choice.

Notes

Feel free to make this cocktail in a large pitcher for your guests to serve themselves (add the sparkling water or champagne straight to the pitcher), or use a punch bowl for a more elegant presentation for a holiday party. 
Add some ice if you wish, and don't forget to add lots of fresh berries for a gorgeous presentation!
