To make Batch Mix: Pour every liquids into one sizeable container, allow it to infuse for one hour, then strain preferably using muslin, so it's completely strained.
To serve: Pour 85ml of your cocktail base to a stirring glass containing ice, and stir lightly for one minute until cold. Strain to a chilled martini glass or a similar vessel, top with some cranberries and complete it by giving it a light spray of mandarin oil over the top.
