This was fantastic. Had I not known this is a cognac cocktail I would’ve thought it had a rum base. The cranberry juice plays the role of grenadine together with the honey sweetness of the D.O.M.. I feel it is important that you balance the cocktail according to the sweetness of your cranberry juice. Since mine was barely sweetened I used a barspoon of demarara simple syrup. Very balanced, aromatic and tart.

This is just great! I found it rather rich, but man is it moreish... I used 100% pure cranberry juice (which I keep on hand for my cosmopolitans, too - I like to adjust the sugar myself) and found that a mere 2.5 ml of sugar syrup was enough for a perfectly balanced cocktail. This is definitely going in my permanent rotation!

Only had unsweetened cranberry juice so I estimated the simple syrup. I mailed it. Agreed that this is well-balanced.

For my taste, I found it a little sweet, but with very good balance and flavour. Did add about 1/2 oz more Cognac and it toned down the sweetness.
