Instructions

cranberry syrupCranberries are high in nutrients and antioxidants making them a “super food.” Top your ice cream with this syrup or mix it 1:1 with maple syrup for a decadent pancake topping – also good on pancakes solo! Wrap some up in store-bought croissant, filo, or puff pastry dough. A couple of tablespoons plus a shot of Maker’s Mark and a splash of water over the rocks ain’t half bad either.

Mix all of the ingredients in a medium sauce pan. Throw in some diced candied ginger if you’ve got it handy.

Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and boil for five minutes. Turn down to a simmer for an additional 30 minutes. Remove from heat, let cool. Keeps fresh in the refrigerator for about  a week.

Makes three cups.

Nutritional info is per two tablespoons.
