Everyone needs a fresh cranberry candy cane martini in their life with a functional twist!
In case you missed it, I shared these last week for Good Food Friday on ABC’s Lowcountry Live and they were an absolute hit. It’s the season of celebrating and why not do it in style – with a healthy twist!
Cranberries are phasing out of season but I’ll always associate them with the holidays. Like most berries, cranberries are rich in antioxidants which help repair cell damage. Other notable standouts are vitamin C which aids collagen production and fiber which supports digestion and elimination. While they are bitter in taste, they incorporate seamlessly into baked goods to balance out the sweetness, and into seasonal COCKTAILS!
What’s unique about these are that they are made with a functional twist.
I used Herb Guru Brand’s NEW tropical immunity herbal tea. These teas are made using a thousand-year-old herbal recipe that has been reformulated by a naturopathic doctor to include modern everyday ingredients like peppermint and citrus. You can enjoy these hot, iced or add them to mixed drinks like I’ve done here.
If you make these, be sure to share with me on Instagram!
