Cranberry juice is tart and crisp, perfect for that in-between September weather. The spiced rum deliciously complements the Caribbean flavors of the Jerk Pulled Pork. It’s easy to make-to-order for your party guests, or batch into a pitcher or thermos for easy pours.

Servings: One 7-ounce cocktail

1 ounce dark spiced rum

2 ounces fresh orange juice

4 ounces cranberry juice

Fresh orange slices to garnish

Fill a cocktail glass (or a pitcher, for multiple servings) with ice.
Pour in the rum. Add the orange and cranberry juices.
Stir to combine. Garnish with a fresh orange slice.
