Ingredients
- 1/2 cup cranberries fresh or frozen, chopped
- 1 cup cranberry juice cocktail
- 2/3 cup granulated sugar or sugar substitute (see note)
- 1 orange juice and zest
- 750 ml prosecco or other sparkling wine (1 bottle)
Instructions
- Combine cranberries and cranberry juice in a food processor or blender. Blend until berries are well chopped.
- In a small saucepan, combine the berry mixture, sugar, orange juice and zest. Bring to a boil then reduce heat to low. Simmer for a few minutes until thickened and syrupy.
- Using a fine mesh strainer, strain syrup into a small bowl and refrigerate until cool. (You can put briefly into the freezer to cool it faster, but watch it carefully so it doesn't freeze.)
- Just before serving, add 2-3 tablespoons of syrup to each glass (see note). Top with sparkling wine and serve.

Notes
