This recipe is perfect! By soaking the cranberries in the simple syrup it makes the cranberries palatable & pop-able! After sugaring them, they keep for weeks in an airtight container. FUN garnish on desserts, in drinks, on snack boards. Easy to do with kids! Added bonus of cranberry flavored simple syrup to add to soda or Prosecco!
