My recipe for Cranberry Sauce with Orange Juice has only four ingredients, is easy to make, not too sweet, not too tart, and packed with vitamins and antioxidants. The orange juice and zest pair well with cranberries, whose tartness is tamed by the sugar. I love making my Cranberry Sauce with Orange Juice the sparkling jewel on my holiday table.

- Fresh-squeezed orange juice
