How to Make Cranberry Raspberry Sauce

  1. Combine 12 ounces fresh cranberries, 12 ounces fresh raspberries, 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup water, and 1/4 teaspoon almond extract in a medium saucepan.
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, then reduce heat to low and simmer gently for 15-20 minutes, or until the fruit is softened and has released its juices. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
  3. Remove the saucepan from the heat and carefully transfer the mixture to a food processor or blender. Puree until completely smooth.
  4. Return the pureed sauce to the saucepan and stir in an additional 1/2 teaspoon of almond extract (or to taste).
  5. Pour the sauce into sterilized jars, leaving about 1/2 inch of headspace. Allow to cool completely before sealing and storing in the refrigerator.
