Cranberry Hibiscus Sauce

• From: Munchin with Munchkin

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup freshly squeezed orange juice

• 1/4 cup red wine, (pinot noir works well)

• 1/4 cup water

• 1/2 cup dark brown sugar

• 1 clove

• 1 Tbs dried hibiscus leaves

• 1 tsp orange zest

• 1 12 oz package of fresh cranberries

Cranberry sauce has a similar flavor to Caribbean sorrel and hibiscus drinks. Here's a great way to make a traditional dish in an untraditional way.

Directions

• Place hibiscus leaves and clove on a piece of cheesecloth and tie into a tight bundle. Set aside.
• In a medium saucepan, combine orange juice, red wine, water, and brown sugar. Bring to a boil over medium high heat.
• Add hibiscus clove bundle to the liquid and boil for 2 minutes.
• Stir orange zest into mixture and add cranberries. Bring mixture back to a boil.
• Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 8 minutes until the liquid reduces. Pour cranberry sauce into a mason jar and let cool uncovered.
• Store in the fridge for up to a week before Thanksgiving.
