How to Make Jack Daniel S Cranberry Sauce

  1. Combine 12 ounces of fresh cranberries and 1/2 cup of chopped orange (including zest) in a food processor and pulse until finely chopped but not pureed.
  2. In a medium saucepan, add the chopped cranberry and orange mixture, 1 cup of granulated sugar, and 1/4 cup of water. Stir until the sugar is just combined.
  3. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until the cranberries have burst and the sauce has thickened slightly. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
  4. Remove from heat and let cool completely. Transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate overnight to allow the flavors to meld.
  5. Before serving, stir in 1/4 cup of Jack Daniel's Tennessee Whiskey. Taste and adjust whiskey amount to your preference.
  6. Serve chilled. Makes approximately 1 quart.
