You said you would be interested in Cranberry. You might check out the
cranberry recipe on Jack Keller's site. I made it and it came out great.
However, I think his Highbush Cranberries are a bit sweeter and less tart
than what we get in the store and I would suggest a little less fruit.
Maybe 2.5 lbs rather than 3. But that is me.
