    Why would you mix cranberry juice with vodka? Seems weird. Don’t see the point.

    Not what I expected. The lime juice is overpowering. I might try less next time.

    1. 2 stars
      I dunno, but sounds like a weird drink lol. I add more vodka to mine, makes it better!

      I actually love the lime juice! It’s such a refreshing kick. Maybe try balancing it with more cranberry juice?

    This is just juice, right? Not really a cocktail lol.

    I thought it was too strong. Maybe less vodka next time?

    I forgot the lime juice and it was still kinda good. Guess that means it’s a solid recipe!

      Glad you liked it even without the lime! I usually think of lime juice as necessary tho.

    Way too tart for me! Maybe add some sugar next time? Just not my thing.

    1. 4 stars
      I actually love the tartness! It really makes the drink refreshing. But I guess everyone’s taste is different.

      Sugar? I thought we are tryin to be healthy. Cranberry is supposed to be sour, that’s the whole point! 🤷‍♂️

    Easy recipe and tastes divine! Used lime juice from a bottle tho, lol.

  12. 2 stars
    Too tart for my liking. I added some sugar but still couldn’t get it right.

    Best drink ever! But does anyone else think cranberries are weird?? Like, who eats them straight?

    1. User avatar Dremora Lord says:

      I dunno, man. Cranberries are just berry. They’re fine, but don’t be eatin’ them without sugar! Like, nobody does that.

      Cranberries are great in drinks! But yeah, eating them raw is a bit much for me. 😂

    Cranberry juice tastes bad to me. Would orange juice work instead?

    1. 3 stars
      Orange juice? I guess you could try it, but it won’t be the same. Cranberry is kinda key for that tart flavor. 🤷‍♂️

  15. 1 star
    I used orange juice instead of cranberry. Not good… 🤮

      Yeah, but isn’t cranberry juice too sweet? I prefer my drinks a bit more tart. Maybe I’ll tweak it a little.

      I totally agree! This recipe has got that holiday vibe going on. Can’t wait to make it for my family gatherings!

    I thought martinis were only gin. Is vodka martini even a thing? 🤔

    1. User avatar Vladimir Harkonnen says:

      5 stars
      Yes, vodka martinis are definitely a thing! They’re just as popular as gin ones. You can customize them to your taste! 🍸

    I dont drink alcohol, can I make this without vodka?

  21. 3 stars
    These are so good! But why not just buy them at the bar? A. Lot. Easier.
