This cocktail is as easy-going as it gets, with aquavit, cranberry juice, and a squeeze of lime, topped with tonic water. Garnish with lime and mint for a very refreshing afternoon cocktail, no matter the season.


Cranberry Aquavit & Tonic
This wintery cocktail combines the herbal spirit aquavit with cranberry, lime, and tonic water. It's refreshing, bubbly, and an approachable way to try aquavit (akvavit) for the first time.
Ingredients
- 2 oz aquavit
- 2 oz cranberry juice
- 1/2 oz freshly squeezed lime juice
- Tonic water
Instructions
- Fill a tall glass with ice.
- Pour aquavit, cranberry juice, and lime juice over ice.
- Top with chilled tonic water (I prefer Q Drinks and Fever-Tree).
- Stir gently and garnish with lime and a sprig of mint.
