Sugared cranberries: To make sugared cranberries, heat 1/2 cup granulated sugar and 1/2 cup water in a saucepan until sugar is fully dissolved. Stir in cranberries and cook for about 1 minute until coated and heated through. Using a slotted spoon, transfer cranberries to a cooling rack with parchment or paper towels underneath to catch the dripping sugar. Let sit for one hour, then toss cranberries in more granulated sugar. Let sit on a cooling rack again for another 30 minutes, and they're ready!
