Citrus-Cranberry Sauce

I recently had someone ask me for my cranberry sauce recipe, so I thought I'd post it. It's perfect for Thanksgiving, and there's nothing better then fresh cranberries versus the tubular shaped g00 that comes from a can. It's easy and not difficult to make. Hope you enjoy!

Ingredients:

2 Large Oranges
1 Pkg Cranberries (12 oz.)
3/4 Cup Sugar
1/4 Cup Water
1 t Lemon Juice
1/2 t Lime Juice

How To Make:

Remove the peel from the oranges along with the pith and seeds. Cut each orange section into chunks.

In a sauce pan over medium heat combine cranberries, oranges, sugar and water. Cook mixture 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Mixtures should reduce down, and resemble a jelly. Once cooked, remove from heat and add lemon and lime juice. Let cranberries cool, and then cover and chill in refrigerator.

This can be made up to 3 day in advance.

Tip:
Instead of oranges, use raspberries or strawberries. If you decide to use both oranges and raspberries add more sugar and water to compensate for more fruit.
