Country Popcorn Balls

Ingredients:
2 cups sugar
One, 10-ounce package (1 cup) frozen cranberry-orange relish
1/2 cup cranberry juice
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1 teaspoon vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt
5 quarts unsalted popped popcorn

Combine all ingredients, except popcorn, in a heavy saucepan. Bring to a boil; lower heat and cook to 250-degrees on a candy thermometer. Mixture will bubble up in pan, so watch to keep from boiling over. Pour slowly onto hot popcorn and mix until well-coated. Let stand five minutes or until mixture can easily be formed into balls. Butter hands and form into 3-inch balls.

Recipe yields 18 balls.
