Serve and Enjoy: Once cooled and thickened, serve the cranberry sauce alongside your favorite Thanksgiving dishes. Its vibrant flavor and color will complement the richness of the holiday meal.
For a more complex flavor profile, consider adding a pinch of ground cinnamon or a splash of orange liqueur during the simmering process.
If you prefer a smoother sauce, you can gently mash some of the cranberries with a spoon as they cook.
Cranberry sauce can be made up to 3 days in advance and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator. This allows the flavors to meld and intensify.
