Cozy up to fall with Vital's newest cocktail!  Cranberries lend a bit of tartness to the classic old fashioned. Make the infused bourbon ahead and have the perfect drink for entertaining.

 

Cranberry infused bourbon: Combine 1 cup roughly chopped cranberries, 12 oz bourbon, and 1/2 cinnamon stick in a mason jar. Cover and let sit for 12 hours, then strain.

orange twist and cranberries, for garnish
In a cocktail shaker, combine infused bourbon and simple syrup (or sugar). Shake vigorously, and strain into your very best cocktail glass. Garnish with an orange twist and a few halved cranberries.

Enjoy!
