Notes
One: Make Ahead
- Prepare up to 2 hours ahead of time. Instead of pouring it into cups, place the plastic blender jar with the lid on (or pour it into a plastic pitcher with a lid) into the freezer!
- Set a timer and give the blender jar a shake every 20-30 minutes so that the juice doesn’t freeze solid.
- Remove the blender jar from the freezer and shake or stir to combine. Or return it to the blender and whip it back together for a few seconds.
Two: Variations
- Lime Cranberry: Add sweetened lime juice to the blender and garnish the drink glasses with lime wedges.
- Orange Cranberry: Add frozen orange juice concentrate in addition to the cranberry concentrate for a Christmas flavored orange julius.
- Cranberry Pomegranate: Add some chilled pomegranate juice to the blender and garnish the drinks with pomegranate arils.
- Pineapple Cranberry: Add pineapple chunks or frozen pineapple juice concentrate to the blender
