I wanted to pop into your inbox with a quick reminder, especially if you love having a few homemade touches ready for the holidays. My Cranberry Cordial recipe needs about 30 days in the refrigerator for the flavors to develop, which means today is the perfect time to get it started if you want to enjoy it by Christmas. And please don’t worry, it does not need exactly 30 days, so if you enjoy it a little early, it will still be totally fine.

I started making this cordial a few years ago, and it has become one of my favorite holiday traditions. It’s made with fresh cranberries, a bit of orange, and a hint of cinnamon, and the result is a beautifully balanced blend of seasonal flavors. It is lovely on its own, wonderful as a cocktail base, and such a thoughtful gift. Last year my family loved mixing it with lemon lime soda, but sipping it from a little cordial glass is just as delightful.

One of the best parts is how easy it is. You can have everything prepped in about 30 minutes. A few weeks later, you have something homemade and special to share all season long!

If you want to get started, the full recipe and details are on the blog. I hope this becomes a new holiday tradition for you and your family. Enjoy!
