How to Make Cranberry Sauce With Spirit
- In a medium stainless steel saucepan, combine 1 cup sugar, 1/2 cup water, and 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat, stirring constantly until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- Add 12 ounces fresh cranberries to the saucepan. Return to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer gently, uncovered, for 5 minutes, stirring frequently. The cranberries should begin to burst and soften.
- Remove from heat and stir in 1/4 cup ruby port wine. Let the mixture cool slightly.
- Place a cinnamon stick (about 2 inches) in each sterilized half-pint jar.
- Carefully ladle the cranberry sauce into the prepared jars, leaving 1/2 inch of headspace at the top.
- Process the filled jars in a boiling water bath for 15 minutes (for half-pint jars). Adjust processing time according to your jar size and altitude. Refer to your canning guide for specific instructions.
- Remove jars from water bath and let cool completely. Check for seals; if sealed properly, you can store the canned sauce in a cool, dark place for up to a year.
