Ingredients
2 cups water
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup Chambord liquor (raspberry flavored liquer) or orange juice
Sugar covered cranberries (optional)
2. Add the liqueur; remove from heat.
3. Strain cranberry mixture through a sieve into a shallow pan, pressing with the back of a spoon to remove as much liquid as possible. Discard solids. Place strained liquid in the refrigerator to chill 2 hours.
4. Pour mixture into the canister of an ice-cream freezer; freeze according to manufacturer’s instructions (or for granita, pour mixture into a 9x9-inch pan, and freeze, scraping occasionally with a fork). Spoon into a freezer-safe container; cover and freeze 1 hour or until firm. Remove from freezer 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with cranberries rolled in sugar, if desired.
Serves 6.
