A family recipe we have used for years. We love it as a side dish to our turkey on Thanksgiving day. Also goes well on chicken, pork, and beef. Makes a great treat as an appetizer served with crackers, or can even be used over vanilla ice cream. I like to add the orange zest a couple tablespoons at a time, as not to overdo it. Adjust sweetness by adding 1 tablespoon sugar at a time at the end of cooking if needed.
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups white sugar , or more to taste
- 1 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
- 1 , 12 ounce
- 1 , 1.5 fluid ounce
- 1 ½ oranges , zested

Heat a saucepan over medium heat; cook and stir sugar, orange juice, half the cranberries, and tequila in the warmed saucepan until mixture is slightly reduced, about 20 minutes. Add the remaining cranberries and orange zest; cook and stir until cranberries begin to pop, 10 to 15 minutes.

Banana Caramel Kefir Smoothie
This banana caramel kefir smoothie is made with nutrient rich, high protein, low-fat kefir, similar to a thin yogurt. It brings tanginess, and the sweet caramel syrup contrasts nicely in this banana smoothie. If you like your smoothies thicker, just add a little crushed ice.
Stuffed Italian Bread
This stuffed Italian bread is an easy way to dress up a plain loaf of bread! Great as an appetizer or as a side dish to grilled steaks. My local grocery sells a blend of mozzarella and provolone cheese that I use.
Apple Pie Egg Rolls
Try these delicious apple pie egg rolls - imagine an ooey, gooey apple pie filling wrapped in an eggroll wrapper and fried until crisp and golden brown. Once fried, the eggroll wrappers become covered in crunchy bubbles, giving this dessert that craveable crunch.
