How to Make Ruby Slippers From Cuisine At Home

  1. Combine 1 cup fresh cranberries and 1/4 cup cranberry juice in a food processor. Pulse until cranberries are coarsely chopped, leaving some texture.
  2. In a medium saucepan, combine the cranberry mixture with 1/2 cup granulated sugar, the zest of 1 orange, and 1/4 cup orange juice. Simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens into a syrupy consistency (about 10 minutes).
  3. Strain the cranberry syrup through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, pressing on the solids to extract as much liquid as possible.
  4. Allow the cranberry syrup to cool completely to room temperature.
  5. Pour 1-2 teaspoons of cranberry syrup into each champagne flute or cocktail glass.
  6. Top with chilled sparkling wine or champagne.
  7. Garnish each cocktail with 2-3 fresh cranberries.
  8. (Optional) For an extra festive touch: Rub the rims of the champagne flutes with an orange wedge and dip in red sugar before adding the syrup and sparkling wine.
