Homemade Cranberry Vinegar combines fresh or frozen cranberries and white wine vinegar – creating this tart vinegar that’s perfect for fall and holiday salads.

Ingredients

Scale

2 cups fresh or frozen cranberries

12.7 ounce bottle of white wine vinegar (slightly more or less can be used - this recipe is very forgiving.

Instructions

  1. Place cranberries and vinegar in a non-reactive saucepan.
  2. Bring mixture to a boil over high heat and boil until the berries burst, about five minutes over high heat.
  3. Turn off heat and let the cranberries and vinegar steep in the saucepan for an hour.
  4. Place a mesh strainer over a bowl, then pour the cranberry mixture through the strainer. Use the back of a spoon or ladle to help the vinegar drip through the strainer.
  5. For extra clear vinegar, pour the strained vinegar through several layers of cheesecloth or through a straining bag like this. (Collect the strained vinegar in another bowl.)
  6. Pour the vinegar into a bottle with lid for storage. (Keep refrigerated.)
  7. Use in salad dressings, vinaigrette, or other recipes calling for vinegar.
