Process
Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
- Add all ingredients to a medium sized saucepan and stir to combine. Bring to a slow boil over medium low heat, then immediately reduce to low. This will boil over easily, so don’t walk away from it. Simmer for 5-7 minutes or until the liquid is a deep red.
- Strain the syrup through a fine mesh sieve set over a heatproof bowl. Do NOT press the cranberry solids, otherwise you will have a “sauce” instead of a syrup. Be patient and let it drip for a minute or so.
- Let the syrup cool slightly then pour into a glass container and refrigerate until chilled.
- Possible uses: add to sparkling water for a festive holiday mocktail or to your favorite spirit for a fun cocktail - drizzle over ice cream - warm up and drizzle over holiday waffles - stir into or drizzle over yogurt for a tasty topper - so many possibilities.
Notes
Don’t discard the cranberries after you strain them. These are amazing to use as a cranberry sauce or addition to baked goods. Use as you would the standard cranberry sauce.
