Barbara’s Cranberry Sauce with Raspberries

1 16oz bag of fresh cranberries
1 bag/box of frozen raspberries
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (approximately one medium lemon)
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup of water
Combine all ingredients in small saucepan. Stir occasionally (so the bottom doesn’t burn). Simmer until all the cranberries pop.
This can be made a day in advance, and chilled over night in the refrigerator.
If you don’t have time to chill in the fridge, place the sauce in a bowl, and place this bowl in a larger bowl with ice, salt, water. Stir occasionally, until the sauce cools and jells.
NOTES: The cranberries can be purchased fresh, then frozen. I usually pop a few bags of fresh cranberries into the freezer so that I can make this again, after cranberry season.
If you have any sauce leftover after dinner, this tart cranberry/raspberry sauce is great over vanilla ice cream. Yum!
