Ditch the canned stuff this year and try your hand at homemade cranberry sauce! A modest amount of sugar and a healthy splash of ginger liqueur keep this sauce tangy and tart. Use the leftovers on your morning toast or a ham and cheddar sandwich. And don’t forget the drinks… pair with a The Cranky Monkey cocktail.
