How to Make Cranberry Freeze

  1. In a large bowl, combine 12 ounces fresh cranberries, 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup water, 1/4 cup orange juice, and 1 tablespoon orange zest. Stir until the sugar begins to dissolve.
  2. Gently crush about 1/3 of the cranberries to release some juice and enhance the flavor.
  3. Pour the cranberry mixture into a 12-cup fluted tube pan or similar freezer-safe dish.
  4. Cover the pan tightly with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight, until solid.
  5. Let the Cranberry Freeze soften slightly at room temperature for about 10-15 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
