How to Make Cranberry Sauce With Port And Oranges

  1. Combine 12 ounces fresh cranberries, 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup ruby port wine, zest of 1 orange, and 1/2 cup freshly squeezed orange juice in a large saucepan.
  2. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Continue to simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the cranberries burst and the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency.
  3. Remove from heat and let cool completely. For optimal flavor, chill the sauce in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving.
  4. (Optional) For a chunkier cranberry sauce, gently stir in 1 cup of segmented oranges and 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts just before serving.
