The sugar and the orange juice offset the tartness of the cranberries to provide a nice blend of flavors. I altered this recipe just a little by bringing the entire cranberry mixture to a boil, and then letting it gently boil for about 10-12 minutes. Then I turned the stove off and just let it sit on the hot burner for awhile. The consistency turned out perfect...not too runny. We all loved this recipe!

This recipe was extremely easy to make...I added chopped up pecans to it before chilling overnight.

Really an exceptional recipe. Despite the ease of preparation, the taste is pretty complex. It is hard to believe it is made with only three ingredients. I'm thinking of making it in large batches and giving it as gifts this Christmas.

I loved this cranberry sauce, thought it was ten times better than the canned stuff. Not too sweet. My family doesn't like cranberry sauce, except for my mother, and she ONLY eats the jellied canned Ocean Spray kind. I say she doesn't know what she's missing. Definitely keeping this recipe for next thanksgiving.

This was so simple and easy to make, yet it was a favorite at my Thanksgiving dinner. Much better than the canned stuff I was raised on.

Everyone loved this at Christmas dinner. They were so impressed that it was freshly made. I didn't tell them that it only took 10 minutes to make. It was so easy and delicious! Thanks!

I made this for Christmas 2001 and converted my entire family from canned to homemade, kids included. I used an orange-guava juice blend because I was out of regular and it was great. definitely recommend

This was another great recipe! My 6 year old son made it! It was great! I normally do not like homemade cranberry sauce because of the orange peel.The Orange juice did the job perfect! Move over Ocean Spray!. Well this is now our favorite cranberry sauce. My son asked if he could make it again for Christmas!
