Christmas Spirit

2 c cranberries
2 clementines or small oranges
2 c granulated sugar
2-inch stick cinnamon
2 c vodka

Crush the cranberries evenly in a food processer or use a mortar
and pestle.  Peel the rind, being careful to avoid the bitter white
pith.  Squeeze the juice and add it and the rind to the cranberries
in a large jar.  Add the sugar, cinnamon stick, and vodka to the
jar and seal securely.  Shake the jar well to combine all ingredients.
Store in a cool place for a month, shaking every few days.

After a month, strain through a funnel and filter paper into pretty
bottles.  Last year I made cranberry sauce with the cranberries
strained from the liqueur.
