The Cape Cod (or Cape Codder) is one of the easiest mixed drinks that you will find. There is no mystery to it and nothing special about it: it is quite simply vodka and cranberry. Despite its simplicity, it is a great-tasting drink and a perfect choice for happy hour or anytime you simply want a fruity, refreshing cocktail.
This is one of those easy vodka cocktails that is a good everyday drink. It is reliable and one that you can mix up in minutes.
This is also one of the few times that the ingredients (particularly the vodka) do not really matter. Cranberry juice has a heavy flavor and it will disguise almost any impurities that are in the vodka, so go ahead and use the budget-friendly brands. The fact that it's a cheap drink to make at home is just one more benefit to the Cape Cod.
"The Cape Cod is simple, easy, and refreshing, and this recipe strikes an excellent balance. Also known as the ‘vodka-cran,’ this cocktail should be known by every bartender, period. It is a perfect cocktail for home imbibing if you want something tasty without expending any energy at all." —Sean Johnson
