"Hello! I'm Jennifer Cail and on behalf of Expert Village, today I am going to show you how to make Cranberry Sauce. To start our Cranberry Sauce we are going to add water and sugar to the pot and we are going to wait for it to boil for the next step. So first our water.

We are going to pour the water in there and we are going to measure out our 1 cup of sugar. The easiest way to measure sugar is just to use your cup and scoop it and that is going to give us about 1 cup which is what we need to add to the water.
