Boozy Sparkling Cranberries Recipes

Steps:

• For the cream: In a saucepan, bring some water to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Have a mixing bowl ready that will fit over the top of the pan but not sink all the way in.
• Put the egg yolks in the mixing bowl off heat. Add the granulated sugar and whisk until the yolks start to turn pale. Place the mixing bowl over the saucepan with the simmering water. Scrape the seeds from the vanilla bean and add to the egg mixture. Slowly add the rum and whisk to combine. Cook over the simmering water until thick, using a rubber spatula to scrape the bowl, about 5 minutes. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until cool.
• For the orange liqueur raspberries: Add the raspberries, confectioners' sugar, orange liqueur and orange zest to a bowl and mix together. Let macerate for 1 hour.
• To assemble: Pile the fruit into 6 individual martini glasses and top with the cream. Crush a cookie over each one and garnish with mint.

Steps:

• To make Cran-Rosemary Juice, combine unsweetened cranberry juice, 2 Tbsp. water, and sugar in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium high heat, stirring to dissolve sugar, then immediately remove from heat. Add 2 rosemary sprigs and let steep 4 minutes. Strain into a liquid measuring cup or 12-ounce resealable jar. Let cool to room temperature and use immediately, or seal and refrigerate up to 2 weeks.
• To make the cocktail, add sparkling wine to a Collins glass, being careful to let fizz settle to get an accurate measurement. Add Campari and Cran-Rosemary Juice, then fill with ice. If you'd like to torch the rosemary sprig, hold it next to the burner of a gas stove or near a match for a few seconds, just to warm a bit. Give the cocktail a very brief, gentle stir, then garnish with rosemary.

Steps:

• Combine cranberries, sugar, water, orange zest, orange juice, orange-flavored liqueur, and salt in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir constantly and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook, stirring frequently, for about 20 minutes.
• Remove from heat and allow to cool. Sauce with thicken as it cools, to a soft-preserves stage. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Steps:

• Place brown sugar, water and Crown Royal Maple in a medium saucepan. Heat over medium heat until sugar is dissolved, do not boil. Remove from heat, stir in cranberries, cover and refrigerate overnight. Place about a cup of sugar in a large bowl or cake pan. In small batches, strain excess liquid from cranberries and roll in sugar. Transfer to a baking sheet to dry in a single layer. After cranberries have dried for about an hour, repeat rolling in sugar to thoroughly coat any remaining liquid. Transfer back to baking sheet to dry for at least another hour. Once dry, store in an airtight container in a cool location. Remaining liquid can be bottled and refrigerated as a delicious simple syrup. http://bakelovegive.com/boozy-sparkling-cranberries/
