Fantastic!! Need to rate more stars, please! I wasn't sure what to expect, but loved everything about it - from using the wine, pomegranate molasses to adding the fresh herbs. The addition of fresh herbs just gave it that something different. Capital G.R.E.A.T.!! This is the cranberry sauce for me. Thank you, ellie, for sharing. Made it for Billboard Tag.
