Large batch tips
This drink is great for a large-batch Christmas gin cocktail! If you want to make a few of these at a time, you can mix the gin, triple sec, and cranberry juice in a pitcher. When you are ready to serve, pour over ice, top with club soda and garnish. Since these weren't individually shaken with ice, they will taste a bit stronger and you will want to add a splash more of club soda.
