Cranberry and cucumber might sound like an odd couple, but the vegetable really mellows out the berry's tartness. From Martha Stewart. Note: Scraping the cucumber makes the drink more pink (and less orange) colored.

1 cup sugar

I tried this recipe and found it to be too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less simple syrup.
