Facebook knows I love to cook, so my feed is always full of recipes! 😂 On Sunday, I came across one for homemade cranberry juice that immediately got my wheels turning.
The person sharing it was making it as an anti-inflammatory booster, but I was thinking… wouldn't that be delicious with a splash of club soda, a little vodka, or even as the base for a holiday mimosa? 🥂
Fast forward to Tuesday, when Grocery Outlet apparently decided to get in on my little kitchen adventure! 😂 There in the produce department was fresh ginger, and wouldn't you know it, bags of beautiful cranberries, too! Well, if that wasn't a sign, I don't know what is. Into my cart they went!
I had everything else I needed at home, so this morning I got my cranberry simmer pot going. And OH MY GOODNESS, my house smells amazing! ❤️
As it simmers, it's turning into a beautiful cranberry syrup with all kinds of delicious possibilities.
And here's the best part — it's a two-for-one win! You get a delicious homemade syrup AND a house that smells absolutely wonderful while it's cooking.
You could even bottle some up for a sweet little holiday gift! 🎄
I'll share the recipe in the comments below. Sometimes Facebook plants the seed, Grocery Outlet supplies the inspiration, and a little kitchen magic takes care of the rest! ❤️
