    Method

    1. Place a martini glass in the freezer 5 mins before you want to serve the cocktail.
    2. Meanwhile, pour the cranberry juice, sloe gin, vodka and ice into a cocktail shaker and shake vigorously for 30 seconds.
    3. Remove the glass from the freezer. Rub the rim of your martini glass with the lime or lemon wedge, then put the sugar in a small, shallow dish and dip the glass in the sugar to create a frosty rim effect.
    4. Strain the mixture into the sugar-rimmed glass. Decorate with the orange zest and a candy cane to serve.
