Ingredients
- 12 once package of fresh cranberries 1.5 cups
- 1 large orange, zested
- 1 cup orange juice preferably freshly squeezed
- 2 cinnamon sticks
- 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1.5 cups granulated sugar
- 1 cup cachaça Brazilian rum
- 1 whole vanilla bean
Instructions
- Add the sugar, orange juice and cachaça to a saucepan and bring to a boil, just enough to dissolve the sugar.
- Next, add the cranberries, the spices and the zest. Simmer until the cranberries begin to pop, about 5 minutes.
- Continue to simmer until the cranberries begin to reduce. Personally, I like them to retain some texture, so I let them stay mostly whole, but you can also break or smash them as this cooks if you like that consistency.
- Let cool completely before transferring the cranberry sauce to a container and storing in the refrigerator for up to a week.
Bom Apetite!!
