cobbler smash
- crushed ice for your glass
- 1 to 2 ounces cinnamon simple syrup
- 3 to 4 ounces cranberry juice (I use 100% juice with no added sugar)
- 1 to 2 ounces bourbon
- 1 to 2 ounces seltzer water (p.s. orange is good with this!)
- cinnamon sticks for garnish
- sugared cranberries for garnish or in your glass!
Instructions
cinnamon simple syrup
- Heat the sugar, water, cinnamon stick and cinnamon in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Whisk until the sugar dissolves. Bring the mixture to a simmer and then turn off the heat. Let it cool completely then stir in the vanilla extract. You can make this a day or two ahead of time and store it in the fridge!
cobbler smash
- To make the drink, fill a glass with crushed ice. Stir together the syrup, cranberry and bourbon. Or, you can shake the syrup, cranberry and bourbon in a shaker for 30 seconds or so. Pour it over the ice. Top the drink the seltzer and garnish with a cinnamon stick and cranberries if you wish.
