For the Cranberry Spice Syrup:
- 1 1/2 cups brown sugar
- 3/4 cup water
- 4 cinnamon sticks
- 1 teaspoon allspice (whole)
- 1 teaspoon clove (whole
- 1 tablespoon orange zest

- 2 ounces ginger beer
- Garnish: lime wheel
Place all of the ingredients in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir continually until the skins of the cranberries begin to pop and they can be easily mashed with the back of a spoon.

Build the ingredients in a double old-fashioned glass filled with ice. Stir well. Garnish with a lime wheel.
