 Pour the popcorn and dried cranberries into a large bowl. Set aside.

Combine light corn syrup, vanilla extract, maple syrup, salt, vinegar, and sugar in a heavy saucepan. Heat on medium heat, stirring occasionally.

Use a candy thermometer to monitor the temperature. You may need to increase the heat to medium-high heat. Remove the saucepan from heat when it reaches 290 degrees.

Immediately pour the hot syrup over popcorn and use a silicone spatula to combine the popcorn, cranberries, and maple syrup mixture.

Use your hands to grab ½ cup of the popcorn mixture at a time and form balls. It may be hot so be careful. The popcorn will be the size of about 3-inch balls.
