Vodka and cranberry became a classic pairing in the mid-20th century, when cranberry growers began promoting their juice as a mixer. Simple, tart and deep red, it has stayed a favorite ever since. The Nordic Crimson takes that pairing and serves it up, shaken and sharp, in a coupe.

Vodka 34 Signature Edition brings Effortless Smoothness to the tart berry and fresh lime, so the drink feels bright and vivid without biting back. A twist of orange adds a warm, fragrant finish.

Bold in color. Clean in taste.

How to make it

Chill a coupe glass.

Add Vodka 34 Signature Edition, cranberry juice and fresh lime juice to a cocktail shaker.

Fill with ice and shake for about 12 seconds, until well chilled.

Strain into the chilled coupe, then express an orange peel over the drink and drop it in.

From the Master Blender

Use unsweetened cranberry juice if you can find it, and adjust with a few drops of simple syrup to taste. You keep the deep berry flavor, and the drink stays crisp instead of candy-sweet.
