Holiday Recipe from the C&R Family to Yours

By
admin

Holidays offer the perfect reason to share good food, and this Lethin family recipe is one of our favorite treats! Either Andrew or Doug pitch in to make this MUST-HAVE dish every year. One time we didn’t have the amount of cranberries the recipe called for, so they added blueberries to make up the difference. As it turns out, we love it that way, and add the blueberries every time.

We think this recipe is so delicious that you’ll want to make enough to have leftovers!

Cranberry Ice

4 cups of berries—cranberries or blueberry/cranberry mix

2 cups sugar

5 ½ cups water

Put in kettle, bring to a boil and then lower heat and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring to dissolve sugar.

Cool and strain through a sieve or food mill.

Add:

½ cup orange juice

¼ cup lemon juice

Pour into loaf pan and freeze.

Set out about 20 minutes before serving. Using an ice cream scoop, spoon into dishes.

Stirring helps to dissolve the sugar. Plus, it’s fun to watch the cranberries and blueberries transform.

From the initial meeting with Beth to the closeout visit, working with C&R was a pleasure. Beth listened, offered advice, and was willing to work within our budget. Every worker who came to our home was punctual, courteous, and cleaned up each day. We truly could not have asked for a better experience!

Excellent service and workmanship. We could not be happier with our kitchen remodel. Beth helped design the perfect kitchen and our Lead Carpenter completed the work in a timely and professional manner. Everyone we came in contact with at C&R was great—we are already working with them on a second project!
