This compote recipe is foolproof, and better still, you can whip it up the day before Thanksgiving. Simply heat fresh or frozen cranberries, sugar, apple juice, and bourbon in a saucepan until it thickens. Let the compote cool, and store it in a covered container in the refrigerator until you’re ready for the feast.
