Ingredients  

  • 2 cups fresh cranberries
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups red wine, such as Malbec
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 Tablespoon grated fresh orange zest
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions 

  • Combine the cranberries, sugar, red wine, water, orange zest and salt in a large heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat. Stir the mixture at a simmer until the sugar is dissolved and the cranberries pop and begin to soften.
  • Remove the mixture from the heat and let it cool to room temp.
  • Pour the mixture into a blender and puree it until smooth.
  • Transfer the puréed cranberry mixture to an 8x8-inch metal pan.
  • Seal the pan tightly with plastic wrap and place in the freezer for at least 6 hours, or until firm.
