This is really tasty! Have made this twice now with my mom. We halved the recipe, as we only have a normal sized blender and didn't need so many servings. Highly recommend using the Grand Marnier; we tried Triple Sec instead and it isn't as nice. Also, about that ingredient--in the original recipe, 1/4 c. is a misprint, as 1/4 c. does NOT equal 4 oz. We found that 4 oz (halved to 2 oz) is the right flavor. Lastly, we also added a bit more simple syrup to make it a little sweeter.

Recipe below contains my modifications, amounts are for a regular-sized blender.

Ingredients:

for the simple syrup--

1/2 c. sugar

1/2 c. water

for the drink--

4 c. ice cubes

3 oz. cranberry juice cocktail

~3 oz. simple syrup (depending on how sweet you prefer)

2 oz. Absolut Citron

8 tsp. fresh lime juice

2 oz. Grand Marnier

2 T. fresh lemon juice

2 T. fresh orange juice

Directions:

1. For the simple syrup: Stir together the sugar and water in a small saucepan. Heat over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until sugar dissolves (around 2 min). Let cool completely (around 30 min).

2. For the drink: Place all drink ingredients in a blender. Blend until completely smooth/slushy (will be a bit thick/can hold small amount of shape). Pour into cocktail glass and enjoy!
