Cranberry Moscow Mule Mocktail (non-alcoholic)
Festive and refreshing, this non-alcoholic Cranberry Moscow Mule Mocktail is a delicious drink for the holiday season. Ginger beer and cranberry juice are combined with fresh lime juice, club soda, and my Cranberry Simple Syrup, to make this delicious holiday mocktail. This drink is not overly gingery or overly juicy, and has just the right balance of flavors. For an extra special presentation, serve in a traditional copper mug (or a rocks glass), and garnish with cranberries and fresh mint.
Honey Fig Jam
This Honey Fig Jam is delicious on so many things! Spread it on some breakfast toast, or top a slice of warm quick bread. Need a quick holiday appetizer? Use it as a base for a sweet and savory crostini. This quick and easy small batch jam recipe uses no refined sugar or pectin, and requires no canning! Can easily be made vegan.
