Tart and Tangy Cranberry Sauce
Are you in charge of the cranberry sauce for next week’s feast? You can have this tart and tangy cranberry sauce whipped up in 15 minutes and it can be made ahead of time and frozen to just heat up for later. Make it this weekend and have one less thing to worry about on Thanksgiving day. I used a package of fresh cranberries and boiled them with apple cider, honey and some traditional cranberry sauce spices. To give it a little extra tang, I’ve added a little balsamic vinegar and a bit of Pinot Noir.
