Reviews
this does make a cranberry simple syrup.it is easy to strain and you end up with no seeds or skin pieces and a very smooth simple syrup. if you let the cranberries open too much (or mash the cranberries ) the pectin will come out and you will end up with more of a jam or jelly/sauce (however you will get a better cranberry flavor) it is also difficult to strain and you will end up with a thick syrup/gel that is packed with flavor. either way this recipe needs some lemon juice to bring back the tartness that cranberries have that tartness is lost with the sugar. dont forget the lemon juice!
