If you’re looking for a sweet drink to make for Valentine’s Day, try this Woo Woo cocktail recipe! With flavors of cranberry, peach, and lime, this drink ranges from light pink to dark red in color depending on the type of cranberry juice you use.
Despite the silly name, the Woo Woo is a refreshing cocktail that’s really easy to make and doesn’t require a lot of ingredients. And if you serve this drink in a martini glass, it looks elegant and sophisticated!
What’s in a Woo Woo cocktail?
A Woo Woo is a cocktail that’s typically made with just three ingredients: vodka, cranberry juice, and peach schnapps. This version of the recipe uses cranberry pomegranate juice and includes the addition of fresh lime juice.
Kitchen Tools and Equipment
Here’s everything you’ll need to make a Woo Woo.
- Cocktail shaker
- Jigger or shot glass for measuring liquor
- Martini glasses
- Knife and cutting board for cutting the lime
Ingredients
- Vodka
- Peach Schnapps
- Cranberry pomegranate juice
- Lime
To make a Woo Woo, start by filling a cocktail shaker with ice. Add the vodka, peach schnapps, and cranberry pomegranate juice. Shake well and strain into a martini glass. Add some lime juice and garnish with a slice of lime!
Recipe Variations
You can use whatever kind of cranberry juice you like for this recipe. The sweetness of the cranberry juice will determine the overall sweetness of this drink. So if you prefer a drink that’s not so sweet, use unsweetened cranberry juice. Otherwise, I recommend using cranberry pomegranate juice.
For the finishing touch, I like to add a small squeeze of fresh lime juice (probably about 1/8 of a lime). If you don’t have any fresh limes on hand, you can use a few drops of bottled lime juice. The lime really balances out the sweetness of the cranberry juice. You can also opt to leave out the lime juice if you prefer!
