I made this cranberry cinnamon drink recipe with Sweet’N Low as part of a series of sponsored posts for Socialstars. #SweetNLowStars
I have NO shame. None. Zero cares given… as long as I get cute pictures.
A few weeks ago, I was creating my drool-worthy menu and remembered I needed a signature cocktail. I ALWAYS serve a special cocktail to my party guests. It’s one of my commandments. The menu consists of the majority of my Thanksgiving favorites, but it was missing one signature Thanksgiving flavor… cranberry.
So, instead of making cranberries to eat, I opted for cranberries you can drink! Genius? You betcha!
Cranberry Cinnamon Cocktail Ingredients
- 64 oz Cranberry Juice
- 4 Cinnamon Sticks
- 2 Oranges, juiced- yielding 1 cup of juice
- 8 tsp Sweet’N Low
- 8 oz Rum
- Orange Slices & Cinnamon Sticks, for garnish
Start by juicing enough oranges to produce 1 cup of juice. I even set aside the 4 halves once I was done juicing them so I could toss them in with the rest of the ingredients. Then, much like mulled cider, you will pour all of the ingredients into a slow cooker and cook for at least 1 hour before serving warm. Prepare to fulfill your basic autumn girl status right along with me!
That’s it.
Oh, I should mention that this drink recipe is just as amazing without the rum. A mocktail isn’t as much fun as a cocktail, but it works. You could always set the bottle of rum next to the pitcher with a sign saying ‘proceed with caution’.
I can definitely see myself making this cranberry and cinnamon drink all throughout the upcoming Christmas season, it looks seriously delicious!

I don’t drink rum because I was once a teenager that had a bad experience with it that I can’t shake to this day, but B loves it. I’m serving this cocktail up this weekend for our football party. Brilliant!

This looks delicious! I am hosing quite a few people in a small space and I think a cold drink might be more comfortable. Has anyone tried to chill it after letting it stew? Any advice?
I have served it warm, room temperature, and cold. My favorite is warm, followed closely by cold. It really depends on the event and my mood that day. Ha! When I serve it cold, I skip the slow cooker and put it straight in the drink dispenser with my reuseable ice cubes.
White rum or spiced??
White.
