Ingredients

  • 3 cups Sugar
  • 3 cups Water
  • 4 sticks Cinnamon
  • 10 whole Cloves
  • 12 ounces, weight Fresh Cranberries

Preparation

Step 1

Prepare a simple syrup by bringing the sugar, spices and water to a boil, stirring occasionally until the sugar is completely dissolved. Pour into a glass bowl and add fresh cranberries. Cover and refrigerate overnight (or for at least 8 hours).

Drain syrup (keep for holiday cocktails or to sweeten hot tea) and spread cranberries on a waxed-paper-lined cookie sheet. Remove cinnamon sticks and cloves. Sprinkle with sugar and let air dry for 1-2 hours.
