Becky's Mom's Cranberry Sauce

Slow-baked cranberries mingle with sugar and orange liqueur to create a glossy, ruby sauce that balances bright tartness with gentle sweetness and a hint of citrus-brandy warmth. Becky's Mom's Cranberry Sauce is ideal for holiday tables or make-ahead side dishes, letting the flavors deepen as it chills. Spoon it alongside roasted meats or swirl into desserts for a festive touch.
