1

bag (12 oz) fresh cranberries

1 1/3

cups sugar

1

tablespoon finely shredded orange peel

2

tablespoons lemon juice

cup orange-flavored liqueur or orange juice

Preparation

In nonreactive 4-quart saucepan, mix cranberries, sugar, orange peel, water and lemon juice. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until juices start to flow and sugar is dissolved.

Increase heat to medium; simmer 6 to 8 minutes longer, stirring occasionally, until cranberries pop. Stir in liqueur. Refrigerate about 1 hour or until completely cooled.
