Papou's Cranberry Sauce

Sharing my Greek grandfather's amazing recipe for cranberry sauce with all my favorite readers! He owned a restaurant and seriously knew his way around food... Papou's Cranberry Sauce has been in my family for decades, couldn't be easier or more festive, and always tastes to me like the holidays. Enjoy! P.S. I usually make two separate containers of this sauce - one without Metaxa (a Greek amber spirit) for the kiddos and one WITH for the grown-ups.

If you enjoyed this recipe, I'd really appreciate it if you could take a moment to rate it and leave a comment. Your feedback helps others discover my recipes and articles. Thanks!
