Ingredients

* 1 lb cranberries
* 4 cups superfine sugar, divided
* 1 cup water
* 3 cups 80 proof vodka

Directions

1.

Combine cranberries with 2 cups sugar.
2.

Add water and boil 4-5 minutes until skins start to pop.
3.

Remove from heat and cool.
4.

Put in a mixing jar, add vodka and shake vigorously.
5.

Cover and leave to infuse at least 7 days, shaking or stirring occasionally.
6.

Pour thru a coarse strainer and discard berries.
7.

Let rest 3-4 days.
8.

Without shaking the jar, decant only the clear liquor into another jar, leaving white residue in the original jar.
9.

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.

10.
Combine liqueur with 2 more cups of sugar and shake vigorously until sugar is absorbed.

11.
Let clear overnight and bottle.
