To start, rinse and thoroughly dry fresh cranberries, and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Then, add sugar and water to a saucepan, and bring it to a boil, letting it simmer for 3 minutes.
After that, you’ll add the cranberries, stirring to coat, before removing from the heat. Continue to stir for another minute. Then, transfer the cranberries to the parchment paper and let them dry.
Lastly, add sugar to a bowl, and roll the sticky cranberries in the sugar to coat. Store them at room temperature in an open container.
Happy cooking!
