Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Rinse the Cranberries

    Thoroughly rinse the fresh cranberries under cold running water to remove any dirt or debris.

  2. 2

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large pot, combine the rinsed cranberries, water, and sugar.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Boil the Mixture

    Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally to help dissolve the sugar.

  2. 4

    Simmer

    Once boiling, reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 10-15 minutes, or until the cranberries burst and release their juice.

Straining

  1. 5

    Strain the Juice

    Remove the pot from heat and strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a large bowl or pitcher to separate the juice from the pulp.

  2. 6

    Cool the Juice

    Let the strained juice cool to room temperature. You can refrigerate it for a chillier drink.

Serving

  1. 7

    Serve

    Pour the cranberry juice into glasses and serve chilled or over ice. Optionally, garnish with fresh cranberries or a slice of lemon.
