Cranberry Liqueur

Ingredients:
cranberries, dried, sweetened
sugars, granulated
water, bottled, generic
alcoholic beverage, distilled, vodka, 80 proof

Directions:
Combine cranberries with 2 cups sugar.
Add water and boil 4-5 minutes until skins start to pop.
Remove from heat and cool.
Put in a mixing jar, add vodka and shake vigorously.
Cover and leave to infuse at least 7 days, shaking or stirring occasionally.
Pour thru a coarse strainer and discard berries.
Let rest 3-4 days.
Without shaking the jar, decant only the clear liquor into another jar, leaving white residue in the original jar.
The white residue can be put thru a paper strainer (I use an unbleached coffee filter) until liquid is clear; add the strained liquor to the already decanted liqueur.
Combine liqueur with 2 more cups of sugar and shake vigorously until sugar is absorbed.
Let clear overnight and bottle.
