Cranberry Sauce

What Turkey dinner would be complete without cranberry sauce?  Not only is cranberry sauce simple to make, it’s always impressive on the table.  It is more cost effective than purchasing jars and gives you the opportunity to add your own twist. You can control the sweetness by adding as much or as little sugar as you like.  Make it extra special by adding port, red wine or any alcohol you like!
