  • 1/3 cup plain or lemon sparkling water
  • 1/3 cup sparkling apple cider
  • 1 sprig fresh sage

Instructions

  1. In a small pot, combine cranberries, haskap berries, sugar, and water. Bring to a boil, then simmer until the fruits burst, about 15 minutes. Crush the fruit with a potato masher and strain through a sieve. Refrigerate until completely chilled.
