Ingredients
- ¼ cup orange juice
- 1 (1.5 fluid ounce) jigger tequila
- 2 teaspoons grated orange zest
- 1 ½ pounds fresh cranberries
- 1 ¾ cups white sugar
- 1 pinch salt
Instructions
- Bring orange juice, tequila, and orange zest to a boil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add cranberries, sugar, and salt; simmer until a jam-like sauce forms, about 25 minutes.
- Blend sauce with an immersion blender for a smoother consistency. Let cool; sauce will continue to thicken naturally.
