This La Croix vodka cranberry cocktail is the perfect drink for any occasion. With La Croix sparkling water, vodka, and cranberry juice it’s an easy cocktail that’s not too high in sugar – which is also why I love creating La Croix Cocktails, they’re light and refreshing!

No matter the occasion, you can’t go wrong with a vodka cranberry. I prefer my cocktails to be light and refreshing, without a lot of heavy sugars. Using La Croix as a base for many of my cocktails, like in my Strawberry Rosé Spritzer (perfect for patio drinks with friends), or my La Croix Paloma (perfect for taco night) allows me to create refreshing twists on classic cocktails.

Ingredients needed for a La Croix Vodka Cranberry

  • 2-4 oz. vodka
  • 8 oz. cranberry juice
  • La Croix Cran-Raspberry Sparkling Water – chilled
  • fresh cranberries and rosemary for garnish

Recipe FAQs and Variations

No, La Croix does not have any artificial sweeteners added. There are no sugars or artificial ingredients. This is why I love creating La Croix mixed drinks, because they’re low in sugar.

Yes, if you prefer a low-carb or Keto diet, La Croix and vodka cocktails are a great choice.

Can I make a mocktail vodka cranberry version?

Yes! Simply eliminate the vodka from the drink and just use the cranberry juice and La Croix sparkling water for a mocktail version of this drink.

Is La Croix healthy for you?

I always encourage my readers to make any health determinations for themselves, but what I can say is that La Croix does not contain any sugars, sweeteners, artificial ingredients, sodium, or any GMO ingredients.
