Candied Cranberries

1: Rinse and dry the cranberries. Remove any soft ones.

2: Mix equal parts orange juice and sparkling water in a bowl.

3: Add cranberries and refrigerate for 30 minutes, although the original recipe calls for marinating 12–24 hours.

4: Strain and transfer the soaked cranberries to a clean bowl.

5: Coat with about 1 1/2 cups of powdered sugar. Shake until all berries are fully covered.

6: Preheat oven to 200°F.

7: Original recipe says to bake for 5 minutes, but I needed closer to 15 to help dry the sugar coating.

8: Let them dry on the counter for a couple of hours.

9: Store chilled in an airtight container for 12 hours before serving.
