Port Cranberry-Apricot Sauce


Port Cranberry-Apricot Sauce
Sarah Drown and Ryan Baltz - Dallas, TX

One of my mom’s annual Thanksgiving dinner treats! We recently made this at our first Thanksgiving in Dallas and it was delicious. I added more port at the end (when everything was cooked).

Makes 3 Cups

Ingredients
½ C thinly sliced dried apricots (about 3 ounces)
¼ C Port (or orange juice)
¾ C Water
2/3 C Sugar
¼ C Honey
1 (12-ounce) package of fresh or frozen cranberries

Instructions
Combine apricots and port in small bowl; cover and let stand for 8-hours. Combine water and sugar in medium saucepan; bring to a boil.  Add apricot mixture, honey and cranberries.  Cook over medium heat (about 10-minutes) or until cranberries pop open and get thick. 

Serving
Spoon mixture into a bowl and chill.

  1. These cranberries are delicious. I had the pleasure of being there for Thanksgiving where they made them for the first time - they were so good.
