Gin And Cranberry Sauced Recipes

Steps:

• Tip the cranberries, sugar and rosemary into a pan with about 100ml water. Cook over a low heat for about 15 mins, stirring occasionally, until all the cranberries have burst and the sauce has thickened to a syrupy consistency. Fresh cranberries thicken the sauce more readily than frozen, so it may take a little longer, but be careful not to let the sauce become a jam.
• Scoop out the rosemary and stir through the gin. Cook for 1 min more, then leave to cool. Will keep, covered, in the fridge for three days.

Steps:

• Grab some leftover cranberry sauce and--avoiding the whole berries--add 2 tablespoons to a shaker with the gin, lime juice and bitters. Add ice, shake very vigorously at least 30 to 45 seconds and strain through a mesh strainer into a chilled coupe glass. Smack a sprig of rosemary between palms to release aroma/holiday aggression and float delicately atop the cocktail. Toast to well-purposed leftovers.

Steps:

• Put all the ingredients in a saucepan. Bring up to a simmer and cook for 5 mins, then take off the heat and leave to cool. Can be chilled for up to four days or frozen for two months. Serve at room temperature.

Steps:

• Tip the sugar and 150ml water into a saucepan set over a low heat and heat until all the sugar has dissolved. Turn up the heat to medium-low and add the cranberries. Cook, stirring occasionally for 15 mins or until the cranberries have started to break down. Leave to cool, then blitz to a smooth purée using a hand blender, if you like (you can also leave it as is). Will keep in a sterilised sealed jar in the fridge for up to a week.
• To serve, spoon 1 tbsp of the cranberry purée into each glass, stir in a single or double measure of the gin and top up with the soda water. Garnish each glass with an orange slice and add a few ice cubes. Alternatively, mix everything together in a jug and serve.
