How to Make Red Roosters

In a large pitcher, combine 12 ounces cranberry juice, 8 ounces orange juice, 4 ounces water, 1/2 cup sugar (or to taste), and 1/4 cup orange liqueur (optional). Stir well until the sugar is completely dissolved.
Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container. Freeze for at least 4 hours, or until solid.
To serve, let the slushy sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to slightly soften. Then, blend in a high-powered blender until smooth and creamy. Add a splash of water if needed to reach desired consistency.
Garnish with fresh cranberries and/or an orange slice (optional). Serve immediately and enjoy!
