SERVES 8 , 3 1/2 cups
- 1 (12 ounce) bag raw cranberries, washed,dried,and picked over
- 3/4 cup dried sour cherries
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 2/3 cup red currant jelly (3/4 of an 11-ounce jar)

- In a large saucepan, combine cranberries, sour cherries, sugar, jelly, and water.
- Over low heat, bring to a low simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes, or until cranberries begin to pop.
- (Cranberries should be tender, but not mushy. You may cook the sauce to your taste, from firm whole cranberries to softer ones that give off more pectin and make a thicker sauce.) Remove sauce from heat.
- Stir in rum.
- Refrigerate at least overnight to thicken sauce.
- Return to room temperature to serve.
- Serving Notes: Refrigerated, the sauce keeps for at least three months.
- And since it easily doubles, you can make it once in early November and be stocked through the holidays.
