Cocktail Friday: The Papa Doble

My husband and I have grapefruits coming out of our ears...  What to do with all these grapefruits?  Make cocktails of course!  The Papa Doble is very tart, a little sweet, fantastically cold, and very refreshing...the perfect use for our sugary sweet fruit, and just in time for the weekend.

Papa Doble
2 oz Clear Rum
1/2 oz Lime Juice
1/2 oz Grapefruit Juice
1/4 oz Maraschino Liqueur

Combine all the ingredients with crushed ice, shake well, pour everything into a chilled cocktail glass, and enjoy!

Cocktail Friday: The Skinny Cranberry Vanilla

Now this is a cocktail I can really get behind: it contains more than a day’s worth of vitamin C and is sugar free.  Yippee hooray...a cocktail that fits within the limits of my New Years Resolution. Tangy, ruby-red berries are an integral part of the season, and as a potent vehicle of important antioxidants, we should enjoy them in abundance while the time of year allows…

Ingredients:

juice + zest of 3 large navel oranges

2  12oz bags fresh cranberries, rinsed and picked over

1/2 cup Truvia

2 cups water

3 cups vanilla vodka

1 large bottle sparkling water

Puree the juice, zest, whole cranberries and 2 cups water in blender, then push through a sieve to remove solids. Transfer into a pitcher, add the Truvia and vodka and mix. To serve:  fill each glass with ice, add vodka mixture to the 3/4 point {or to taste}  and top off with sparkling water. Give it a gentle stir and garnish with orange zest and cranberries.  Enjoy...and celebrate Friday!
