Fresh cranberries should be stored in the refrigerator in their original packaging or in a breathable container. They can last up to 3-4 weeks when kept cold. For longer storage, cranberries can be frozen in an airtight container or freezer bag for up to a year. Avoid washing them until just before use to prevent premature spoilage.
