Cranberry Syrup

The luscious roasted cranberry syrup provides an amazingly sweet and tart flavor. It may sound like a lot of work, but it’s really super simple to make.

How to Make Cranberry Syrup

Just toss the cranberries in some sugar, and fresh lime zest and throw in the oven.  Bake them until they are juicy and tender. Process in a food processor with some more sugar and hot water, and then strain it…Voila! PRO TIP: These little cranberries will release juices while roasting, which combined with the sugar it can be a potential sticky mess. So don’t forget to line the baking sheet with Reynolds Parchment Paper, for fast and easy cleanup. I hate scraping and scrubbing pans. Plus, the parchment paper will help cranberries to slide off easily.
