This is my mother's recipe for cranberry sauce with bourbon. Each year, she would make it for an auction. Her sauce usually sold for $12.00 per 8-ounce jar! Tangy cranberries sweetened with sugar are baked in the oven with bourbon to kick things up a notch. Tastes best when it has had time to sit, for example, 2 weeks. The longer it sits, the stronger the flavors. A delicious addition to your holiday plate!
