Parties and alcohol are two of a kind. Alcohol has this intimate relationship with parties that no other beverage could fill—any party person
knows that. For kids, chocolate smoothie infused with cranberries is enough for them to go wild. For adults, cranberry vodka punch!
The magic ingredient, if it isn't obvious enough, is cranberry.
