Move over boring cranberry sauce! Cranberries are so much better with blueberries and wine! Make your own fresh cranberry and blueberry sauce in 30 minutes. It's so EASY, and everyone LOVES it!!
1cupcabernet sauvignonor shiraz, merlot, or a favorite red wine
1cupgranulated sugar
1tablespooncinnamonor to taste
1teaspoonground clovesor to taste
Instructions
Combine all ingredients in a medium to large kettle, and bring to a rolling boil, stirring intermittently. Make sure kettle has room for sauce to at least triple in volume. The juices from the berries release and as the mixture boils rapidly, it will foam and a too-small pot will easily overflow.
Reduce heat to low and allow sauce to simmer for about 20 to 30 minutes, or until reduced and thickened slightly, and most of the cranberries have burst. Sauce will thicken more as it cools.
Transfer to heat-safe jars or containers with lids. Allow sauce to cool at room temperature before refrigerating.
Notes
Sauce will keep airtight in the refrigerator for at least 2 weeks.
