Method
 

  1. Chill your coupe or martini glass in the freezer for at least 15 minutes.
  2. In a cocktail shaker, combine the vodka, cranberry juice, raspberry liqueur, lime juice, and simple syrup.
  3. Fill the shaker with ice.
  4. Close the shaker tightly and shake vigorously for 15-20 seconds.

Notes

For a non-alcoholic version, substitute vodka with sparkling cranberry juice or club soda and raspberry liqueur with raspberry syrup. Get creative with garnishes like sugared cranberries or chocolate-covered strawberries.
