Recipe: Drunken Cranberry Sauce

We wish this post were scratch n’ sniff because of the cranberries used to create this next Fall fave! November 21st is National Cranberry Day and we have just the thing for you to celebrate the occasion! Fun fact, another name for cranberries is “bounceberries” because they bounce when ripe. And cranberries were used by Native Americans as a vibrant red dye. Speaking of, you might want to grab an apron or wear an old shirt just in case.. these beautiful berries tend to stain clothes easily!
