Boozy Raspberry Cranberry Sauce

Boozy Raspberry Cranberry Sauce is always a favorite in my house. Made with fresh cranberries, juice from fresh tangerines and the ‘boozy’ part is Raspberry Liqueur. If you want to make this alcohol free, use a 10 oz container of frozen sweetened raspberries, thawed. I prefer to use tangerines instead or oranges when making anything with cranberries. In my humble culinary opinion, tangerines have a stronger flavor than oranges when added to cranberries. Give it a try and taste the difference.

Fast and Easy

Like all cranberry sauce recipes, this one is equally easy. Making your own cranberry sauce takes minutes and it’s so much better than the ‘jellied’ cranberry sauce you buy in a can, even though my kids prefer this version over fresh. I prefer a ‘cooked’ cranberry sauce verses a ‘raw’ sauce, only because there are so many different ways to serve a cooked sauce. One of our favorite ways to serve cranberry sauce is with pork tenderloin or with any game meat.
