The Eastern Indians called them "sassamanesh," but today they're known as cranberries. Sweet, tart and tasty, nothing goes better with turkey and all the fixings like cranberries. My Cranberry Mojito recipe puts a unique twist on a traditional Thanksgiving favorite that’s refreshing and a festive choice for the holidays or anytime of year. I hope you enjoy this award-winning recipe and welcome your feedback or questions. The folks at Ocean Spray liked it so much it was crowned the 2007 Ultimate Cranberry Foodservice Recipe of the year.
