Cranberry Orange Shrub with Rosemary Method 3
This shrub recipe uses a cold process. The ingredients are the same as the hot process recipe. Make them both and compare!
Equipment
- Blender or food processor or knife
- large clean jar with lid
- spoon
- Measuring cups
- clean bottles or jar with lids
- Funnel
- sieve
- cocktail sieve
Ingredients
- 1 lb. fresh cranberries
- 2 Mandarin oranges chopped
- 2 sprigs fresh rosemary leaves only
- 1 cinnamon stick
- ¾ cup white or golden sugar
- 2 cups filtered water
- 1 ¼ cups cider vinegar
- ¼ cup white balsamic vinegar
Instructions
- Wash the cranberries and put them into a blender or food processor. Pulse to chop them. Transfer to a large clean jar. (If you don’t have either, just chop them up with a knife.)
- Pulse the oranges in a food processor or blender or chop them up whole with a knife. Transfer to the jar.
- Add the sugar, oranges, rosemary, and cinnamon and mix well with a spoon, then stir in the water. Cover and set aside for 2-3 days.
- After 2-3 days, strain the mixture into a large bowl, pressing gently to express as much juice as possible without pushing the fruit through the sieve.
- Add vinegar(s) and stir.
- Bottle it: pour over a cocktail sieve placed in a funnel to remove more of the sediment. Cover and refrigerate. You can use it now, but it is recommended that you wait a few days for the flavors to marry and get happy.
