For the Batch Mix: Mix every spirits and syrup in a big jug, let it rest for an hour, then strain , ideally through a fine cloth, making it perfectly clear.
When ready to serve: Measure 85ml of your premix into your stirring glass packed with ice, and agitate lightly for about 60 seconds to chill. Strain into an chilled martini glass or equivalent, garnish with the cranberries adding the final touch using a quick spritz with the mandarin essence over the drink.
