Cómo preparar Cranberry Mint Infusion
- **Brew the Mint Tea:** In a small bowl, pour 4 cups of boiling water over 1 cup of fresh mint leaves. Let steep for 10 minutes.
- **Strain the Tea:** Strain the mint tea through a fine-mesh sieve into a heat-safe pitcher or container. Let cool completely.
- **Make the Cranberry Syrup:** In a 1-2 quart saucepan, combine 2 cups fresh or frozen cranberries, 1 cup granulated sugar, and 1 cup water.
- **Simmer the Syrup:** Bring the cranberry mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until the cranberries have burst and the mixture has thickened slightly.
- **Strain the Syrup:** Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Strain the cranberry syrup through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the cranberry skins and seeds. Let cool completely.
- **Prepare the Cocktail:** In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, combine 1/3 cup chilled mint tea, 2 tablespoons cranberry syrup, 1 tablespoon limoncello, 2 tablespoons vodka, and 1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice.
- **Shake and Strain:** Shake vigorously for 15-20 seconds until well-chilled. Strain into a chilled martini glass.
- **Garnish and Serve:** Garnish with a fresh sprig of mint and serve immediately.
