Ingredients
- 12 ounces fresh cranberries
- 1 cup 7-up
- 1 cup orange juice
- 2 cups powdered sugar
Instructions
- Wash and drain the fresh cranberries, discarding any soft or overripe berries. Then add the cranberries, orange juice, and 7-up to a medium bowl, making sure all the berries are submerged. Let soak for at least 8 hours up to 48 hours.
- After the cranberries have soaked, drain off the juice, saving it for later use in mocktails or cocktails. Then, allow the cranberries to dry for approximately one hour. They should become tacky to the touch.
- Add the cranberries and powdered sugar to a gallon-size ziplock bag and gently shake, coating all the cranberries.
- Line a large-rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and preheat the oven to 200°F. Spread the sugar-coated cranberries in an even layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake them for 5-7 minutes, being careful not to overbake them.
