3LFPOD 79: Thanksgiving Drinks

This Week on the Pod: Just a quick pop in to give thanks to our listeners and share a drink.

Just a quick pop in this week to say hello and share a festive drink recipe as we and you all stuff our birds and bake our pies. We're laughing and loving the craziness of having a house full of friends and family.

We'll see you back here next week for our regularly scheduled full-sized episode. Where we'll share part two of our interview with Kim Englehardt. Cheers!

What We're Drinking: Cranberry Martinis

We all love a Cosmo, and this drink is prettttty much a Cosmo minus the lime juice. Lynne super-charged hers with a festive frozen cranberry float (highly recommend). Recipe for the drink below, cheers! INGREDIENTS

2 tablespoons dried cranberries

¾ cup cranberry juice cocktail

½ cup vodka (We like Tito's)

¼ cup Triple Sec liqueur

1 cup ice

PREPARATION

Step 1

Put the cranberries and 2 tablespoons of water in a small bowl,

cover it, and microwave for 30 seconds. Allow it to cool completely,

which should take about 15 minutes.

Step 2

In the meantime, mix the cranberry juice cocktail, vodka, Triple

Sec, and ice in a large cocktail shaker. Secure the lid and shake

vigorously for 30 seconds. Add a tablespoon of cranberries to

each of the 2 martini glasses and pour the cocktail mixture over them. Serve

chilled. To create a tasty and festive holiday beverage in no time, prepare the ingredients ahead of time and shake them when your guests arrive
