A cranberry tip

If you're making a grenadine-ish cranberry sauce and don't have grenadine or a jar of cherries, cherry Kool-ade will make an acceptable alternative.

I found this out on Thanksgiving.
So after playing with it after too much O.J. concentrate), I came out with this chutney sauce.

• 1 bag fresh cranberries
• 1 med apple- chopped
  
• about 1/2 cup raisins
• about 1/4 cup dried pineapple chunks -cut into quarters
• 1 1/2 cups orange juice
• 1/2 cup water
• about 2 cups brown sugar
• a dash of allspice...maybe two
• a dash of cinnamon (optional)

Mix in sauce pan and simmer until thickened.
Taste, and ad white sugar as needed.
