Instructions

  1. Combine cranberries with 2 cups sugar.
  2. Add water and boil 4-5 minutes until skins start to pop.
  3. Remove from heat and cool.
  4. Put in a mixing jar, add vodka and shake vigorously.
  5. Cover and leave to infuse at least 7 days, shaking or stirring occasionally.
  6. Pour thru a coarse strainer and discard berries.
  7. Let rest 3-4 days.
  8. Without shaking the jar, decant only the clear liquor into another jar, leaving white residue in the original jar.
  9. The white residue can be put thru a paper strainer (I use an unbleached coffee filter) until liquid is clear; add the strained liquor to the already decanted liqueur.
  10. Combine liqueur with 2 more cups of sugar and shake vigorously until sugar is absorbed.
  11. Let clear overnight and bottle.
