Framboise Cranberry Sauce

By Chez_Alexander

Belgian Framboise Lambic beer—a frothy, berry-colored beverage—adds an underlying sweetness that complements the cranberries.

Ingredients

• 1 (12-ounce) bottle Framboise Lambic beer (such as Lindemans)
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1 1/2 teaspoons grated orange rind
• 1 (12-ounce) package fresh cranberries

Preparation

Step 1

Bring beer to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add sugar, rind, and cranberries; bring to a simmer. Cook 18 minutes or until slightly thick, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat; cool to room temperature. Spoon into a bowl; cover and chill. (Sauce will thicken as it chills.)
