Featured recipe:


Cranberry Cordial


2 cups sugar
1 cup water
1 bag (12 ounces) cranberries, fresh or thawed frozen, coarsely chopped
1 teaspoon grated orange rind
3 cups vodka

Combine sugar and water in medium-sized saucepan. Bring to boiling over moderate heat. Lower heat and simmer, stirring constantly until all sugar is dissolved. Stir in cranberries and orange rind; remove from heat. Cool to room temperature.

Combine sugar-cranberry mixture with vodka and cover tightly in large glass container or jar with a tight-fitting nonmetal lid. Store in a cool, dark place 3 to 4 weeks. Shake container every 3 days.

Drain cranberry mixture through sieve into a large bowl; reserve liquid. Press cranberries to remove as much liquid as possible. Strain this liquid before adding to reserved liquid. Bottle liqueur and store one to two weeks before serving.
