Mooseberry Cocktail

Jennifer Tyldesley
I love the flavour of highbush cranberries. To me, nothing signals the arrival of fall quite like seeing them dotting the forest landscape. Making a syrup and then straining it removes those pesky seeds and creates a fantastic, brightly-coloured cocktail ingredient! To create a boozy version, just add the optional vodka.
