Craisins, a blend of the words "cranberries" and "raisins," are dried, sweetened cranberries commonly used as a snack, baking ingredient, or salad topping. Originating from North America, where cranberries are natively grown, they offer a burst of tart-sweet flavor and chewy texture. While naturally rich in antioxidants, dietary fiber, and vitamin C, the sweetened version typically contains added sugars, which may diminish its health benefits for those watching sugar intake. Craisins are versatile in cuisine, complementing dishes ranging from oatmeal to trail mixes, and can add vibrant color and zesty flavor to both savory and sweet recipes. They serve as a convenient way to enjoy cranberries year-round, but moderation is key if you're aiming for a balanced diet. For a healthier option, seek unsweetened or minimally processed varieties.
