Cranberry Superfoods

On a recent adventure in central Wisconsin, I came across a rural cranberry bog.  Vibrant red cranberries floated in blue waters, as storm clouds passed overhead.  It was a beautiful sight.

I have always loved cranberries, but don’t eat a lot of them until the approaching holidays.  I did some research and found out that cranberries are actually considered a superfood.  They are rich in Vitamin C and fiber, high in antioxidants and low in calories.

Locally grown and harvested in Wisconsin, nothing tastes better or fresher than cranberries right out of the bog.

Instead of waiting for the holidays, incorporate cranberries into your everyday meals, you will enjoy the health benefits.

Here is one of my favorite drink recipes:
