About the recipe
Many people default to using canned cranberry sauce, but making it from scratch is very easy and far tastier — especially when you mix in Southern bourbon and pecans. Fresh cranberries are usually available in most supermarkets in the fall months, and you should be able to find frozen cranberries year-round.
