Cranberry & Ginger Eggnog Fizz: A Sparkling Twist on a Creamy Classic

The Cranberry & Ginger Eggnog Fizz is the cocktail equivalent of wrapping up in your cosiest winter jumper — with a little extra sparkle. This indulgent holiday serve combines the rich, velvety texture of traditional eggnog with the festive fizz and zing of Double Dutch Cranberry & Ginger, creating a luxurious drink that’s perfect for celebrating the season in style. It’s creamy, spiced, and lifted with a fruity, fiery finish — comfort and cheer in one elegant glass.

This eggnog variation keeps the best parts of the classic — the warm spices, creamy texture, and a touch of booze — but freshens things up with maple syrup, spiced rum, and a splash of tonic for a modern twist. The addition of Double Dutch Cranberry & Ginger cuts through the richness with tart berry notes and warming ginger, turning a heavy drink into something unexpectedly refreshing and absolutely festive.

Why We Love It

The Cranberry & Ginger Eggnog Fizz is the ultimate upgrade on your traditional Christmas cocktail. It’s nostalgic but innovative, indulgent yet balanced — the best of both worlds. The frothed egg yolk and milk create that signature eggnog creaminess, while the maple syrup adds natural sweetness and depth. A little nutmeg and cinnamon bring warmth, and the fizz from the Double Dutch mixer gives it that unexpected lift that keeps it from feeling too rich.

Perfect For…

This cocktail is made for festive celebrations — think Christmas Eve, holiday brunches, or as a comforting evening drink after a long, chilly day. It’s rich enough to stand on its own as a dessert serve, but light enough to enjoy as part of a longer night of entertaining. Serve in a tall glass to show off its creamy body and fizzy finish, and garnish generously for maximum visual impact.

Double Dutch Mixer Match

Cranberry & Ginger is the ideal addition to a creamy base like eggnog. The cranberry’s tartness cuts through the dairy beautifully, and the ginger brings just the right amount of heat and spice. Together, they balance the drink and make it feel lighter, brighter, and full of festive personality.

Top Tips for Serving

• Shake hard: You’ll want a creamy, well-mixed texture — a good 15 seconds with ice will do the trick.
• Pour the mixer slowly: Add Double Dutch Cranberry & Ginger gently down the side of the glass to preserve the foam and create a layered look.
• Garnish generously: Star anise, cinnamon, and nutmeg make this drink feel as festive as it tastes.
• Optional extra: Add a dash of double cream to dial up the indulgence for special occasions.

The Cranberry & Ginger Eggnog Fizz is a bold, beautiful reinvention of a classic. It’s rich, spicy, refreshing, and a guaranteed showstopper for your holiday drinks lineup.
