Fresh Cranberry Juice

1 Pint Cranberries
2 Cups Water
1/3 Cup Sugar
1 Tbs Lemon Juice

Cook the cranberries in water for approximately 5 minutes until the skins split open. Strain the liquid through a cheesecloth or fine strainer.

Place the juice in a pan and bring to a boil then add the sugar. Cook for 2 minutes remove from heat and cool. Add the lemon juice.

Cool thoroughly and serve with a lemon garnish.

Fresh Slice Grapefruit and Maraschino Cherries

Pink or Yellow Grapefruit, ½ fruit for each person
Brown Sugar

Slice each grapefruit in half and remove all the seeds. Loosen the fruit from the peel, being careful to leave the flesh inside the peel.

Sprinkle the tops of each grapefruit with brown sugar. Lay on top of the brown sugar 3-4 maraschino cherry halves.

Place the grapefruit, still in the skin, under the broiler for 8-10 minutes or until the brown sugar begins to bubble. Serve immediately.
