Cranberry Simple Syrup

There are a few produce staples during the Holidays 🎄. Sweet Potatoes, Chestnuts, Brussels Sprouts, Pomelo, Pearl Onions, Pomegranate, and many more. Another one that we enjoy using in many recipes during this time of year is Cranberries!
 
These tangy little guys are a superfood loaded with antioxidants! Without pinpointing all their health benefits 💚, they should certainly be a regular in your diet. I love using them either dried, frozen or fresh. I also buy already juiced.
 
I love baking or cooking 👩‍🍳 with these berries especially when I make my Cranberry Cream Cheese Crisp, Cranberry Orange Bundt Cake or even for savory dishes like Pork Loin Chops with Cranberry & Pistachio Chutney, Citrus Cranberry Sauce, Cranberry Butter, etc., as well as in beverages.
 
A condiment I like to have on hand during the Holidays is my Cranberry Simple Syrup! Like any other simple syrup recipe, it’s super easy to make and a nice way to flavor many dishes, sweet or savory, including beverages and cocktails.
 
It’s very versatile and can be used for many different applications. Brush some of it on when making sugar cookies, pour it over vanilla ice cream, enhance savory sauces or glazes, marinate meat, or use it when making cocktails like my Holiday Aperol Spritz coming up at the end of this month.
 
Stored in the fridge for up to a month 📆, this Cranberry Simple Syrup is certainly a great condiment during this festive time of year.
Bon Appétit! 🍽
