When hubby saw this recipe in an old family cookbook, he knew we'd have to try it. We made it last night in a clear jar, and it's going to sit on the sideboard all Thanksgiving day as a guaranteed conversation starter.
Cranberry Cordial
Ingredients:
2 packages (12 oz each) cranberries, chopped4 cups sugar
3 cups vodka
Directions:
Mix all ingredients in 2-quart jar or crock. Cover tightly and let stand at room temperature 2 weeks, stirring mixture or inverting jar every day.Strain, pour cordial into bottles and seal. Serve well chilled or over craced ice.

Cookbook says: After straining cordial, cranberries can be used with water to make an ice ring for a holiday punch.

Wow, it's been a long time since I made an ice ring!
I'll let you know in a couple weeks if the cordial turns out.
Do you have a favorite cocktail or beverage recipe that you make during the holidays?
Have a great Thanksgiving (if you celebrate it), and a very lovely week!

Laura,
ReplyDeleteMy kind of recipe. Relatively easy and fool proof. One we'll have to try.
I'm not much of a drinker (I know - what's wrong with me!) but this sounds so easy and pretty to look at. Can't wait to hear how it tastes.
