Cranberry Orange Vinegar Recipe

By CarolineNGa

I enjoy making an assortment of vinegars but this is a favorite. The longer the cranberries and oranges sit in the vinegar, the more intensely flavored it becomes.— Kathy Rairigh, Milford, Indiana

Ingredients

• 6 cups white wine vinegar
• 1 package (12 ounces) fresh or frozen cranberries, chopped
• 3 medium oranges, sectioned and chopped

Preparation

Step 1

In a large saucepan, heat vinegar to just below the boiling point. In a large bowl, lightly mash the cranberries and oranges; add heated vinegar. Cover and let stand in a cool dark place for 10 days.
Strain mixture through a cheesecloth and discard pulp. Pour into sterilized jars or decorative bottles. Seal tightly. Store in a cool dark place. Yield: 6 cups.
