Method
Making the Citrus Syrup: Combine all the components inside a pot, bring to a gentle boil, mixing to dissolve. After that, turn off the stove allowing it to cool down fully. Pour to a sterilised bottle, cap it and store in the fridge, it will last for up to four weeks.
Preparing the Premix: Mix every spirits and syrup in a large bottle, leave to sit for an hour, then pass it through preferably using cheesecloth, to ensure it's completely strained.
When ready to serve: Measure 85ml from the premix to a cocktail shaker containing ice, and stir lightly for a minute to cool it down. Filter into a cold coupe glass or equivalent, top with the cranberries and finish by giving it a brief mist with the mandarin essence over the drink.
