Cranberry Simple Syrup

1. Heat the water and sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat until the sugar is dissolved. Add in the cranberries and bring everything to a boil then reduce the heat to low. As the cranberries begin to break down you will hear them pop, start smashing them with a spoon or fork.
2. Once the liquid thickens to a syrup consistency, remove the pot from the stove.
3. Strain the syrup into a container using a mesh strainer and discard the cranberries.
