Cranberry Juice & Jam
New Jersey has a significant cranberry industry; so I decided to make my own juice and jam. Its terrific! I spent $3 dollars for 4# of berries. I have use about a 1# and the yield is 2 gallons of the best tasting cranberry juice imaginable. I intend on hand pressing the berries a bit before reducing them to a jam. The juice from that pressing should really boast the intensity.
The result is far better than the commercial ocean spray juice.
1# of Cranberries
1 Gal of Water
Boil, Strain, Chill
Total time invest 25 minutes. I check it twice during that time period.
I added 7 packages of equal, and a bit of cured ginger the kind you get with sushi, awesome.
You could use anything to flavor this juice - Thyme, Lemongrass, spices, etc.
