Ingredients

1 lime wedge

Red sanding sugar

8 ounces vodka

1 ounce cranberry juice

1 teaspoon vermouth

Skewered fresh cranberries (for garnish)

Preparation

Rub the rims of 2 martini glasses with a lime wedge, and then dip each rim into a saucer of red sanding sugar, rotating gently to evenly coat. Chill in freezer at least 10 minutes. In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, shake vodka, cranberry juice, and vermouth until chilled, about 20 seconds. Strain into chilled glasses, and garnish with skewered fresh cranberries.
