Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Rinse the Cranberries

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

  2. 2

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large pot, combine the rinsed cranberries and 4 cups of water.

  3. 3

    Boil the Mixture

    Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 10-15 minutes until the cranberries burst.

  4. 4

    Strain the Juice

    After the cranberries have burst, remove the pot from heat. Use a fine-mesh strainer or cheesecloth to strain the juice into a bowl or pitcher, discarding the solids.

  5. 5

    Sweeten the Juice

    Add 1 cup of sugar and 2 tablespoons of lemon juice to the strained juice. Stir well until the sugar is completely dissolved.

  6. 6

    Cool and Serve

    Allow the cranberry juice to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate until chilled. Serve over ice or as desired.
