2. Turn the heat off and let it cool with the lid on for 20 more minutes.
3. To make each mocktail, add a generous amount of ice to a rocks glass. Add 2 tablespoons of the maple simple syrup you just made, plus the cranberry juice and apple cider vinegar (and vodka, if using).
3. Top your glass with ginger kombucha or Ginger Ale and stir.
4. Garnish with frozen cranberries and a sprig of fresh rosemary. Enjoy!
