Stewed Cranberry Punch

Starts similar to a favorite holiday side dish from which it derives its name.

(Servers 8 )

- 1 cup frozen cranberries
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- ¼ cup sugar
- 4 whole cloves
- 1 star anise
- 2 cinnamon sticks
- 6 cups of orange juice
- ½ lime juice
- 8 oz Captain Morgan’s Spiced Rum

Like classic cranberry sauce, begin with a small pot of cranberries, brown sugar, whole cloves, cinnamon sticks, star anise, cardamom pods and orange rind brought to a boil.  Cool the mixture to room temperature before adding orange juice and a touch of limejuice – refrigerate overnight.  To serve, strain the mixture into a punch bowl then garnish with whole cloves and cinnamon sticks. Freeze fresh cranberries and orange slices in a block of ice!  For an added kick add a jigger of rum to each glass as served.
