Use 100% unsweetened cranberry juice

What Kind of Cranberry Juice Should Be Used in a Royal Flush Drink? Unsweetened. We prefer to use 100% unsweetened cranberry juice in all of our cranberry cocktails. Here’s why:

• Avoid sweet cranberry juice, also known as cranberry juice cocktail. It contains a lot of added sugar. These days you can find boots labeled 100% juice or “unsweetened” cranberry juice.
• The unsweetened juice provides balance and vibrant color. Cranberry acid is a great antidote to fruity peach. It also makes a bright and vibrant red drink.
• Use a little plain syrup to balance. It’s very tart so we added a dash of simple syrup to balance it out. If you can only find sweet cranberry juice, omit it!
