Ingredients
Scale
- 1½ cups sugar
- 1½ cups water
- 2 cups cranberries
- 2 tbsp sliced ginger – sliced in big chunks
Instructions
- In a small sauce pot, combine the sugar, water, and ginger. Bring it to a boil and let the mixture simmer for about 5 min. Remove from heat and let the syrup cool for a bit.
- Test the mixture to see if it has cooled enough by dropping a cranberry into the syrup mixture. If the cranberry pops open, its still too hot.
- When the syrup is cooled, add the cranberries to the syrup mixture and stir to coat. Let the cranberries sit in the syrup until they get soft. At least a few hours or overnight.
- When they are ready, remove the cranberries from the syrup and toss them in sugar. Set them on a wire rack to dry.
Notes
Keep the syrup and use it to make a cranberry ginger cocktail!
