Method

To prepare the Citrus Syrup: Place the listed ingredients inside a pan, heat until it reaches a light boil, stirring so the sugar melts. Then, take off the stove and leave to reach room temperature completely. Decant to a clean bottle, seal keeping it in the refrigerator, it can be stored for about one month.

Preparing the Premix: Mix the specified liquids into one sizeable container, leave to sit for an hour, then filter it , ideally through cheesecloth, to ensure it's perfectly clear.

To serve: Pour 85ml of the batch mix into a mixing glass filled with ice, and agitate gently for a minute until cold. Strain into a cold coupe glass or similar, top with some cranberries and complete it by giving it a light spray of the essential oil above the glass.
