CRANBERRY SHERBET

Meet the Cook: When mealtime rolls around, my husband and our two teenagers are never sure what's in store - lots of my cooking is "trial and error", and I love trying out new things. Luckily, my family doesn't mind being my guinea pigs! This recipe, however, actually originated with one of the boys. It was published in his Sunday school paper about 10 years ago. First-time tasters comment on how light it is...and say they can't believe it's made with cranberries. -Heather Clement, Indian River, Ontario

6 1/2 cups water
2 bags (12 ounces each) fresh cranberries, plus more for skewers
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 ounce whipping-quality pasteurized egg white, lightly beaten
1/4 cup superfine sugar
1 liter club soda
