There are many Cranberry Sauce recipes. This is one of the best and will be on my table every Thanksgiving and Christmas holiday.

What a perfect compliment to a Thanksgiving dinner! Didn't have any brandy, though, but was still wonderful and had people fighting over the leftovers, and who got to take it home!

This cranberry sauce is so good. My sugr boiled over so I didn't get to simmer it for three minutes, but it didn't seem to matter.

This is really good! Just be absolutely sure you don't use the pith! (the white part). I did use about half the amount of zest as others recommended, and I also added a stick of cinnamon to step two and removed it at the end. Oh, and DON'T THROW AWAY THE ORANGE WATER that you worked so hard to make!! Substitute it for water in whatever recipe might taste better with a hint of orange, or add an equal amount of sugar to it, heat to dissolve and you have a wonderful orange simple syrup. You can use it to make recipes, or even mix with your leftover brandy to make some really good cocktails (I added mine to our batch of sangria we make every year and it came out extra delicious :)

Easy and delicious. I added a little cinnamon. I was a little confused by the directions about reserving the zest and it really didn't say when to add it, I guess it was suppose to go with the reserved water. Didn't have brandy so use orange liquor. Came out fantantic. I picked this recipe because my daughter's name is Claudia also and I figured it had to be good. Thanks, already in my recipe book.

I left out the brandy, but it was still awesome. For someone who doesn't like Cranberry sauce I really liked it. Made it for Thanksgiving and we had no leftovers.

The person that said you can't go back to store bought was absolutely right!!! This was simple, delicious, quick, I can't say enough. I tried it on Thanksgiving and ended up making several jars and giving them as Christmas gifts. PERFECT!!!

This was fantastic! The Brandy and orange zest added a wonderful kick...the flavor did improve/mellow after refrigerating for a day or two. It was a hit at our Thanksgiving Table. We will definitely be making this again!
