CRANBERRY CORDIAL
Scarlet-hued, with just enough sugar to offset the tartness of the berries, this vodka-based spirit submitted by Corey Balazowich was a resounding success. It's also a good place to use up cranberries left over from Thanksgiving.

Steps:
- In a large saucepan, bring sugar and 1 1/2 cups water to a simmer, stirring until sugar dissolves.
- Place cranberries in a food processor and pulse until they are broken up. Add cranberries, vodka and citrus zest (if using) to the sugar syrup in the pot. Stir well, then transfer to a large jar or two, cover and shake well. Shake the mixture every day for 2 weeks. At this point, you can either strain the mixture into smaller bottles for gift giving, or continue to infuse the spirit in the large jar. It will keep for up to 2 months.
