Can I use cranberry juice instead of fresh cranberries?

Technically, yes, but most store-bought cranberry juice is loaded with sugar. Look for unsweetened cranberry juice and adjust the sweetener in the recipe to taste.

Can I make the syrup ahead of time?

Absolutely. The cranberry syrup can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week. Perfect for prepping before a big party or just having it ready for your daily spritzer fix.

What’s the carb count per serving?

If you stick to the recipe, the spritzer is about 2-3 net carbs per serving. The exact count depends on how much syrup you use.

Can I add alcohol without ruining the keto vibe?

Yes! Vodka, gin, or even a splash of dry champagne work beautifully here. All are keto-friendly in moderation.
