A serviceable if unexciting red fruit long drink. Not too sweet, not too strong, not too weak. Better with half lightly aged rum and half of something (anything) to provide excitement - an agricole, a jamaican, an overproof...

Being not a fan of commercially produced "cranberry cocktail", the watered down sweetened blend so often found on grocery store shelves; and not having any 100٪ cranberry juice, substituted Pom pomegranite juice, increased the lime juice and added 15 ml Campari. Excellent!

Cool and refreshing, almost tiki in character. Made the Hinojos Variation (sounds like a chess opening...) in the belief that it will be better at sanitizing bites from nasty flying rodents. Garnished with fresh raspberries.

Made this for our Halloween dinner. Did make a slight adjustment by using 1/2 light rum and 1/2 overproof light. Made for a wonderful cocktail.
