Mors – Russian Cranberry Drink

Mors is a traditional Russian soft drink made with fresh cranberries, water, sugar or honey. 
 
3 cups fresh cranberries
4 -5 tbsp. honey
7 cups water
½ lemon juice
 
Blend cranberries in a food processor for 5-8 seconds. 

Add blended cranberries to a pot. Pure in water, bring to a boil, and cook for 3 minutes.
Short cooking time allows vitamins not to be lost during the preparation.
 
Add 2 tbsp. honey and let the drink cool. 

Strain the drink through a strainer, letting it drip into a bowl for a few minutes.
Gently press the berries to extract the remaining juice. Add the remaining 2
tbsp. honey and lemon juice.  

Chill  in refrigerator.  Serve with a slice of lemon or orange.

Sincerely yours,
Nellie
