Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 cups fresh or thawed frozen cranberries
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger (from a 2-inch piece)
Ice
4 bottles (12 ounces each) pilsner

Steps:

  • Bring cranberries, sugar, ginger, and 1 cup water to a boil in a small saucepan. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until cranberries burst and mixture has thickened slightly, about 8 minutes. Let cool completely, then strain through a fine-mesh sieve, gently pressing on solids (pressing too hard will make mixture cloudy).
  • For each drink, fill a pint glass with ice. Add 1 ounce cranberry syrup. Top with pilsner (you'll need about half a bottle per drink) and stir; serve.
