Is it really a holiday meal without cranberry sauce? In my house, the answer would be a resounding “No!” Cranberry sauce is one of our favorite holiday treats. It has to be made from scratch, there has to be lots of it, and it has to be delicious. This is our go-to recipe and we absolutely adore it. The lemon juice adds a nice zing to it, and the orange juice and sugar balance out the tartness of the cranberries very well.
