Instructions

1. In a small saucepan, bring 2 cups sugar and water to a simmer. Stir well to dissolve sugar.
2. Remove pan from heat and set aside, allowing the mixture to cool for 15 minutes.
3. Stir in cranberries. Cool completely. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
4. Strain cranberries. (Be sure to reserve the extra syrup to use for another recipe such as our Cranberry Cocktails.)
5. Spread 3/4 cup sugar on a parchment-lined, small baking sheet. Toss cranberries in a few at a time, and gently shake and jiggle to completely coat cranberries.
6. Transfer sugared cranberries to a clean baking sheet and allow to set for about 1–2 hours, or until dry.
7. To store, transfer to airtight container and refrigerate.
