200ml newly squeezed lemon juice
500g fine sugar
Ingredients for the Cocktail (produces 850ml, serving 10)

Instructions
Making the Syrup: Combine all the items into a saucepan, heat until it reaches a gentle boil, agitating to dissolve. Next, turn off the heat allowing it to cool entirely. Decant into a sealable bottle, seal and refrigerate it chilled, where it will keep for around one month.
To make Premix: Combine all the liquids into a large bottle, let it rest for 60 minutes, then strain preferably using a fine cloth, to ensure it's perfectly clear.
For serving: Pour 85ml of your premix into a stirring glass packed with ice, and agitate carefully for about 60 seconds to chill. Filter into a frosted cocktail glass or a similar vessel, top with the cranberries adding the final touch using a light spray with the mandarin essence over the drink.
