Deschutes Dissident Cranberry Dried Cherry Sauce

The tartness of the cranberry complements the full-flavored Oud Bruin (a Flanders-style sour brown ale) from Deschutes Brewery. Adding in cherries and orange peel amplifies the flavor spectrum of the beer, producing a cranberry sauce that is addictive and serves as a wonderful compliment to a turkey. This sauce can also be used with a roasted goose, roasted duck, pork roast and great when used in a leftover sandwich!

Makes: 2 1/2 cups
