Cranberry Mors

Do you love the tart cranberries?

I absolutely love anything to do with cranberries. Usually, have them brewed for tea, make a bit of jam or an add in a hand full to roasting pumpkins. So yumm.
Of late, I have taken a fancy to a  brew of freeze-dried berries from a Russian recipe. It was a pure coincidence to find a recipe when I had a handful of beautiful cranberries.
This simple recipe is one of the best if you have frozen cranberries and it is just perfect for summer.  Spice it up if you like with a bit of cinnamon and cardamom for a amazing aroma. But, I love the basic one.
The whole idea of simmering and releasing the pectin from the cranberries to give a silky feel to the drink should be not restricted to the recipe books. I have used freeze-dried cranberries for this recipe and they are my all time favourite
There we go..now we have something for the year round with cranberries than just a Thanksgiving style Cranberry sauce.

Not only this drink comforting during the cold season but it adds like a natural diuretic too. Have tried cranberry flavored tea but this drink sounds good too. So the cranberries you used are different from the slightly sweet dried ones?

Cranberry season is coming soon and this is a great recipe to use them up. They are so healthy and surprisingly in spite of their tartness, my boys love cranberry drinks.

This drink will be a welcome addition to my pantry in Summer. I have recently liked to appreciate the taste of cranberries (not a fan of berries, in general) and would like to challenge my palate.
