Notes
If you don't have cranberry sauce, you can use 1 oz cranberry juice instead. If you don't have a cocktail shaker, use cranberry juice, not the sauce, and mix everything right in the glass.
Virgin margarita:
Skip the tequila and Cointreau. Add 1 oz more orange juice, 1 oz water, and 1 extra tsp maple syrup.
