This Cranberry Mule Mocktail is a non-alcoholic version of the classic Moscow Mule made with cranberry juice, ginger beer and lime juice. Perfect for the holidays!

Cranberry Mule Mocktail

This non-alcoholic version of the classic Moscow Mule features the same signature flavors of ginger and lime, with a seasonal twist: cranberry! It’s beautifully festive, with a deep red hue that looks stunning garnished with a sprig of rosemary or a slice of lime. It’s easy to make, delightfully fizzy, and loaded with flavor—making it a crowd-pleaser at any gathering. More mocktails you will love, Virgin Mojito, Zero-Proof Jalapeño Paloma and Virgin Bloody Mary.

Why This Works

I like to take a break from alcoholic occasionally. It can be tough to find nonalcoholic cocktails that have complex flavors and feel sophisticated, which is why I love coming up with mocktails. Ginger beer has no alcohol but it has a great zing that I love in a mocktail.

•   Easy: With only three ingredients plus ice, this mocktail will be ready in minutes.
•   Refreshing and Balanced: Lime juice and cranberry give this fizzy mocktail citrusy brightness and color,    and the ginger provides a little spice for a refreshing beverage.
•   Fun: Just because you’re not drinking alcohol doesn’t mean you shouldn’t have something exciting to drink.

Dirty Martini Dip

If you’re a fan of the classic dirty martini, this dip will take your happy hour snacks to the next level! Imagine all the briny, savory flavors of your favorite cocktail turned into a creamy, scoopable dip perfect for veggies, crackers, or a crusty baguette. The best part? This version is lightened up by using Greek yogurt so you can enjoy it without excess calories. It’s light yet delicious, making it a great addition to any gathering, whether you’re hosting a cocktail party, Christmas party, or New Year’s Eve party. For more healthy dip recipes, don’t miss my Buffalo Chicken Dip or this Greek 7 Layer Dip.

Why You’ll Love This Dirty Martini Dip

Last year, my friend Dyanne brought this dip to my Christmas party, and I asked her to share her recipe. We lightened it up with Greek yogurt as the creamy base, and it tastes exactly like her version.

• Perfect for Dirty Martini Lovers: Dirty martinis are iconic for their bold flavors, and this dip captures every ounce of that magic. Briny green olives and a splash of olive juice (the “dirty” part) bring their signature flavor to the forefront.
• Easy: This dip recipe takes little time to make, and you can even prepare it a day early so it’s ready to serve when it’s party time.
• Dietary Restrictions: Weight Watchers-friendly, vegetarian, gluten-free, high-protein

If you make this simple dirty martini dip recipe, I would love to see it. Tag me in your photos or videos on Instagram, TikTok, or Facebook!

Why Greek Yogurt?

Whole milk Greek yogurt lightens this dip by reducing the fat content while still delivering that rich, creamy texture. Plus, it’s packed with protein, so you can feel good about indulging in it. I highly recommend whole milk Greek yogurt for the best results.

Dirty Martini Dip Ingredients

This is the best dirty martini dip with all the traditional martini ingredients: gin or vodka, olives, and gorgonzola cheese. See the recipe card for the exact measurements.

• Onions: Sauteed onions add depth and complexity to the dip.
• Liquor: Use vodka or gin–whichever you prefer in your martinis! The alcohol cooks out since you’re cooking it with the onions.
• Creamy Ingredients: Whole-milk Greek yogurt (don’t use fat-free!) and low-fat mayonnaise
• Olives: No dirty martini is complete without olives! Use chopped green martini olives with pimento and the brine for maximum flavor.
• Seasoning: Salt and black pepper
• Lemon Zest for a bright citrus note
• Gorgonzola or Blue Cheese: The ultimate martini has blue cheese-stuffed olives, so the bold, savory flavor of gorgonzola or blue cheese is essential.

How to Make Dirty Martini Dip

To make this quick appetizer, saute the onions and mix everything together. Scroll to the bottom for the printable instructions.

1. Saute the Onions: Heat olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and salt, and cook until browned. Pour in the alcohol and cook until it’s almost evaporated. Set aside to cool.
2. Combine the Ingredients: In a medium bowl, stir together the yogurt, mayo, olives, brine, pepper, onions, and cheese.
3. Garnish with lemon zest and olives.

Variations

• Olives: Substitute Castelvetrano or manzanilla olives.
• Alcohol-free Dirty Martini Dip: Omit the liquor.
• Cheese: Swap gorgonzola with blue cheese or Roquefort.
• Pro Tip: To make it feel extra fancy, serve it in a large martini glass or skewer a few olives on toothpicks as garnish!

What to Serve with Dirty Martini Dip

This easy dirty martini dip is delicious with crudites (carrots, endive, radishes, cucumbers, etc.) or crackers, chips, or pretzels.

Storage

• Make Ahead: Prep the dip a day early and refrigerate it in an airtight container or tightly cover it with plastic.

This easy Pork Tenderloin with Cherry Sauce is juicy and tender, topped with a sweet-tart sauce made with balsamic and cherry preserves. It’s the perfect balance of flavors—savory, sweet, and a touch tangy!

Pork Tenderloin with Cherry Balsamic Sauce

Pork tenderloin is a lean and tender cut of meat that cooks quickly and absorbs flavors beautifully. It’s also a healthier option, as it’s low in fat while still being incredibly juicy when prepared correctly. A quick sear locks in the juices and creates a golden-brown crust, while finishing it in the oven ensures even cooking. And if you’re on WW, it’s now one of their new 0 point foods! This dish is perfect for weeknight dinners yet elegant enough for the holidays.

Why You’ll Love This Cherry Pork Tenderloin Recipe

I originally tested this recipe with port wine which was great, but I ran out then tested with balsamic vinegar and loved it even more! Bonus, it’s less expensive than using port wine. This is great with mashed potatoes and roasted vegetables on the side.

• Easy: Just 5 ingredients, not counting salt and pepper.
• Quick: Takes about 30 minutes!
• Holiday Worthy: If you need a simple dish for the holidays, this would be a great option. You might want to make extra sauce!
• Sweet, Tart and Savory: The sweet cherry-balsamic glaze complements the tender, juicy pork, creating a perfectly balanced flavor profile.
• Dietary Restrictions: Weight Watchers-friendly, gluten-free, high-protein, dairy-free.

If you make this pork tenderloin recipe, I would love to see it. Tag me in your photos or videos on Instagram, TikTok, or Facebook!

What You’ll Need

You need only 5 ingredients plus salt and pepper to make this flavorful pork tenderloin recipe. See the exact measurements in the recipe card below.

• Balsamic vinegar is a sweet, tangy and fruity.
• Cherry Preserves: I like using this lower-sugar cherry spread from Bonne Maman, but any cherry jam will work.
• Thyme’s earthy, herbaceous flavor contrasts nicely with the sweet jam and balsamic.
• Pork Rub: Garlic powder, salt, and pepper season the pork.
• Pork Tenderloin is a tender yet lean cut of pork.

Is it better to sear pork tenderloin before roasting?

Searing the pork tenderloin first is crucial for the best results, even though it’s an extra step. It gives the meat a pretty brown color and enhances the flavor. I love cooking it in a cast-iron skillet since it can be used on the stove and in the oven.

How to Make Pork Tenderloin with Cherry Balsamic Sauce

Between making the cherry sauce and cooking the pork, this simple pork tenderloin with cherry preserves sauce will be ready in under 30 minutes. Scroll to the recipe card below for the printable instructions.

1. Make the cherry balsamic sauce: Boil the balsamic vinegar, then cook on low heat until reduced. Stir in the cherry preserves and cook for a minute until it thickens slightly. Remove from the heat and stir in the thyme.
2. Season the Pork: Combine the garlic powder, salt, and pepper and rub over the tenderloins.
3. Sear the Pork Tenderloin: Brown the tenderloins on all sides in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Spoon half of the cherry sauce over the meat, reserving the rest for later.
4. Bake the pork at 400°F for 10 to 15 minutes, depending on the thickness. Use a meat thermometer to confirm they’re at 145°F. (see tips below)
5. Rest: Loosely cover the skillet with foil and let the pork rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with remaining cherry sauce.

Variations

• Balsamic Vinegar: Swap the balsamic vinegar wine for port wine instead.
• Preserves: Make the pork tenderloin glaze with different jams, like blackberry, plum, or apricot.
• Herbs: Substitute thyme with rosemary.

Serving Suggestions

Storage

• Refrigerate pork for up to 4 days.
• Freeze it for 3 months.
• Reheat: Thaw it in the fridge the day before eating. Then, microwave until warm.

Notes

The best tip for not overcooking pork tenderloin is to use a meat thermometer to monitor the internal temperature. I have the Meater Plus and love it. Here’s how to do it:
Cook to the right temperature: Remove the pork tenderloin from the heat when it reaches 145°F (63°C) in the thickest part. This ensures it’s safe to eat while staying juicy and tender.
Rest the meat: Let the pork rest for at least 5 minutes after cooking. The temperature will rise slightly due to carryover cooking, reaching the perfect doneness.
Avoid overcooking: Keep an eye on the pork as it cooks, especially since tenderloin is a lean cut and can dry out quickly.
