Thanksgiving Wine Series: Fresh cranberry sauce

The best thing about homemade Cranberry Sauce is the fantastically fresh flavors.  I love the combination of tart and sweet!  With some added sugar and the right spices everyone will think you spent hours on this – when really it takes just a few minutes!

1 package fresh cranberries (12-16oz)
1/2 cup sugar
2 TBS crystallized ginger
1 lemon – zested & juiced
1 TBS orange marmelade
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1/4 tsp cinnamon

  1. Place all ingredients in a small pot over med-hi heat.
  2. Heat until boiling, Cranberries will begin popping, about 15-20 minutes.
  3. Remove from heat, cover, and refrigerate at least 2 hours.
