This alcohol-free drink is perfect for winter celebrations and a lovely, healthy twist to the classic cranberry mule mocktail. It's a super easy drink to make, free of any granulated sugar, and infused with nourishing and immune-supporting ingredients you can't get enough of.

It's no secret that I'm a fan of Anima Mundi products.

Ingredients To Make This Refreshing Drink:
Besides the elixir, which I link to below, you really only need a few simple ingredients to make this sparkling cranberry mocktail.
- Unsweetened Black Cherry Juice: It not only adds a lovely depth of flavor, but it also complements the tartness of cranberry juice and balances out the drink’s overall taste. Make sure the bottle mentions "not from concentrate" so you get the deep flavors of pressed juice.
- Unsweetened Cranberry Juice: Pure cranberry juice gives the drink its signature tartness, making it an ideal base for any cranberry mocktail. Again, make sure it's "not from concentrate."
- Maple Syrup: This natural sweetener adds a touch of sweetness without any added sugar, balancing the tart flavors.
- Anima Mundi Euphoria Elixir: A wonderful addition for a herbal twist, the Euphoria Elixir adds a subtle complexity to the mocktail and enhances its festive vibe with natural adaptogens. There are too many key benefits to mention here, but I especially love this one because it's formulated with potent aphrodisiacs that are rich in antioxidants and have mood-boosting properties. Use code “NATURALVEGAN” to get 15% off and try it out.
- Sparkling Water: It adds a delightful fizzy sensation, like in my Tart Cherry Sleepy Time Mocktail, that makes it so refreshing.
- Fresh Garnishes: A sprig of rosemary and cranberries create a beautiful finishing look.

How To Make Them:
This delicious drink is ridiculously easy to make and made in minutes. Let's have a look.
- Mix the Juices: In a cocktail shaker or glass, combine the juices, maple syrup, and Anima Mundi Euphoria Elixir. Stir or shake until well mixed. Serve in a tall glass over ice.
- Add Sparkling Water: Top it off with sparkling water and give it a gentle stir.
- Garnish and Serve: Garnish with a sprig of fresh rosemary and a few fresh cranberries for a festive touch. Enjoy immediately!
Top Tips:
As always, I have a few tips for you.
- Use Quality Ingredients: Opt for fresh rosemary and cranberries to garnish for the best results. They elevate the drink's visual appeal and aroma. Frozen cranberries can work, too, and can be an ice cube alternative. Same for the juices, go for unsweetened and "not from concentrate." It makes all the difference in taste.
- Serve in Style: Serve your sparkling cranberry mocktail in a fancy glass or a copper mug, or really make it stand out at your holiday celebrations.
- Don’t Skip the Ice: Adding ice cubes helps chill the drink and enhances the refreshing feeling when you sip it.
Variations And Substitutions:
As always, I encourage you to follow the recipe first. The vibrant red color and amazing flavors are going to surprise you. But just in case, here are a few adjustments you can make to tailor it to your taste buds.
- Customize the Sweetness: If you prefer a sweeter, euphoric cranberry drink, add a touch more maple syrup or use a simple syrup recipe to adjust the sweetness to your taste.
- Add Lime: For a zesty kick, garnish with lime slices or even a splash of fresh lime juice for a cranberry lime mocktail variation.
- Orange Zest or Orange Mocktail: Add orange zest to the drink or substitute some of the cranberry juice with fresh orange juice for a citrusy twist.
Storage:
While this sparkling cranberry mocktail is best enjoyed fresh, you can store the mixed juice base (without sparkling water) in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. When you're ready to serve, just pour it over ice and top it with sparkling water for a refreshing drink on demand.
But because it is such an easy recipe to make, I encourage you to make it fresh on the spot whenever you can and have ice cubes ready in your freezer.
Equipment Needed:
- Cocktail Shaker or Mixing Glass: To mix the juice base.
- Glass or Copper Mug: For serving.
- Spoon: For stirring.
Recipe FAQs:
Yes! Simply multiply the ingredients and mix them in a large pitcher or punch bowl. Add the sparkling water just before serving to keep the fizz intact.
For the best results, I recommend using pure unsweetened cranberry juice, as cranberry juice cocktails often contain added sugar.
This mocktail is a fantastic choice for the holiday season, family gatherings, and winter celebrations, but it’s also a great non-alcoholic beverage for any special occasion year-round.
