Tips:
- Use fresh cranberries. Fresh cranberries have a brighter, tarter flavor than frozen cranberries, and they will hold their shape better in the cordial.
- Don't overcook the cranberries. Overcooked cranberries will become mushy and lose their flavor.
- Let the cordial cool completely before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the cordial to thicken slightly.
- Store the cordial in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. You can also freeze the cordial for up to 6 months.
- Serve the cordial chilled or over ice. You can also use it in cocktails or mocktails.
