  3. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  4. Strain the cranberry mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a pitcher, pressing on the solids to extract as much juice as possible.
  5. Stir in the lime juice and water.
  6. Add ice to the pitcher.
  7. Garnish with cranberry slices and lime wedges (optional).
  8. Serve immediately and enjoy!
