Cranberry Sauce is Better with Bourbon

  • Sometimes the holidays can be a nightmare. Too much family, too much anxiety, too much food.
  • While the triptophans from the Turkey can lull you into a minor coma, leaving you drooling a little snuggled up on the couch watching the big game, and the immense amounts of butter makes you feel like a slow stuffed pig, sometimes the only thing that can really help you through the holiday is a little booze. So, we have discovered the delicate balance of booze and one of your favorite Turkey day relishes....
  • cranberry sauce is better with bourbon

  • 1lb bag organic cranberries
  • 1 c raw turbanado sugar
  • 1 texas orange (peeled & diced)
  • 1 texas apple (peeled & diced)
  • pinch of ground cinnamon, nutmeg & salt
  • 1/4 cup bourbon

  • In a medium saucepan, simmer cranberries, orange, apple, cinnamon & nutmeg. Cover, and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cranberries burst. Remove from heat, add bourbon and let cool to room temperature.

  • Eat up and put on a big smile, this is something to be very thankful for, indeed.
