Cranberry Liqueur

Ingredients:
cranberries, dried, sweetened
alcoholic beverage, distilled, vodka, 80 proof
syrups, sugar free
orange juice, raw

Directions:
Rinse and pick over the cranberries, discarding stems and any soft or shriveled berries.
Chop berries in a blender.
In a sterile, wide-mouth jar, combine the cranberries, vodka, sugar syrup and orange zest.
Cap, shake gently and set aside in a cool dark place for 4 to 5 weeks.
When ready to proceed, strain out the solids and save for other uses (cakes, sauces or relish).
Filter and transfer to another sterilized bottle.
Note: To make sugar syrup, bring 1 1/4 cups sugar and 2/3 cup water to a boil.
Simmer, occasionally stirring and scraping down the sides of the pan, until the sugar is dissolved, about 5 minutes.
