Port Cranberry Sauce is an elegant twist on the classic side dish! This recipe takes classic cranberry sauce to an entirely new level with the rich, fruity flavor of port wine. The sweetness of fresh pear offsets the tangy flavor of the cranberries. Orange, warm cinnamon and vanilla also add great depth of flavor. Fresh cranberries, orange juice, cinnamon and port wine are combined to create a sweet and tangy sauce that pairs beautifully with your favorite holiday dishes!
