Homemade Sugared Cranberries
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups water
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 12oz pack of fresh cranberries
Directions
- Boil water and sugar. Cool to room temperature.
- Pour sugar water into a jar or container and add cranberries. Let them sit to soak up the sugar water anywhere from 10 minutes to overnight. The longer the better but 10 minutes still works.
- Pour the sugar water out (drain) and then let them dry on a baking sheet with parchment paper for an hour.
- Roll them in sugar and again until they are evenly covered and again let them dry for an hour or so at which point they are ready to enjoy.
Notes:
These sugared cranberries can be used as a topping for Christmas cookies, and you could also add them to cocktails to make the holidays extra festive.
If you prefer sweeter cranberries you can adjust the water/sugar ratio so that it’s 2:1 or 1:1 instead of the 3:1 in this recipe.
Important note: once the berries have soaked in the sugar water, do not pour any water over them. Simply drain the excess juice and let them dry.
Enjoy
