hirsty for a twist? This 3-ingredient soju Cape Cod—bright, tangy, and ice-cold—mixes up in minutes for a Korean vodka kick. Ready to sip?

Tips for making this Soju Cape Cod Cocktail
- We used Original Cranberry Juice Cocktail, which is sweetened, but you can use 100% cranberry juice (just know that it’s super SUPER sour without sugar, so you’ll need to add more simple syrup to this recipe).
- This recipe is just for one serving so you can start over for each drink instead of doing the math.
- I used to wonder why simple syrup was necessary for drinks because it seemed like an extra step, but it’s basically so that your sugar is already dissolved and mixes easily into cocktails.
- No one wants a pile of sugar at the bottom of their cape cod cocktail glass.
