Cranberry Sauce...with or without the booze

WIth Easter coming, decided to tweak  cranberry sauce so it sits up and roars a little. So easy to make the real stuff. Forget the gelatinous gloop you can find in the grocery store. It's days are numbered......

INGREDIENTS: 1 pkg fresh cranberries, 1 apple cut into small chunks, leaving on the peel,1 cup sugar, 1 cup orange juice, 1 tsp cinnamon, 1/8 cup Grand Marnier or Whiskey,  or you can leave it alone.

METHOD: Cook everything, including the tad of alcohol together in a medium saucepan over medium hear. THe cranberries should pop most  invitingly once the  fruit has cooked down, and marnier should have become just a whiff at this point, with no raw alcohol taste. Serve with dinner. Or smother over turkey sandwiches and serve to some very lucky people.
