Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Sweetened Cranberries.
Step 1
In a small saucepan, mix together 1 cup of sugar and 1 fluid ounce of water.

Once dissolved, remove the saucepan from the heat and allow the syrup to cool to a lukewarm temperature.

Prepare a baking sheet by sprinkling it with sugar, and line another baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 7
After the cranberries have marinated, drain them thoroughly.

Spread the cranberries on the sugar-dusted baking sheet, rolling them in the sugar for an even coating.
