Spiced Cranberry Orange Sparkler

“You won’t know that you’re not drinking alcohol with this sparkler. Cranberry juice is protective of the urinary tract, supports heart health and provides heaps of vitamin C to boost the immune system. The cinnamon and star anise add a wintery flavour alongside blood-sugar balancing and anti-inflammatory properties,” says Alexa Mullane.
