Uncommonly Clyde

By: c-biskit

"We drink this year-round but invented it over the holidays, when we had mounds of homemade cranberry sauce in the fridge. It evolved from a Champagne and fresh berry compote drink that we saw being made at Portland's Clyde Common. We subbed bourbon and experimented until we arrived at this delicious mix."

2 fluid ounces bourbon whiskey
1/2 teaspoon brandy-based orange liqueur (such as Grand Marnier®)

Footnotes

To make the cranberry sauce
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Stir a 12 ounce bag of fresh cranberries together with 1 1/2 cups of white sugar, 1/2 cup of brandy, and 4 1/2 teaspoons of orange zest in a shallow baking dish. Bake in the preheated oven until the berries are soft and the liquid has evaporated, about 1 hour. Allow the berries to cool completely before using in the cocktail above. Store the cranberries covered in the refrigerator.
