Ok, done yet?
Goodness.  I have to admit I used to make a killer cranberry salsa.  Ok, crash course - cranberries, jalapenos (or serranos), fresh lime juice, chopped shallots and ......  tequila!


Face forward to today, er two days ago.
Cranberry Margaritas (my way)
4oz FRESH cranberries, not frozen, ground or otherwise
1/2 of a tangerine or an entire clementine
1 jalapeno pepper
1 1/2 oz of agave nectar
1oz grand marnier (or cointreau noir)
2oz of tequila - lets go with platinum on this one, ok?

30 second prep:
muddle the clementine, jalapeno and cranberries
add nectar, tequila, the orange liqueur and 5oz of ice
shake like the dickens
and strain into a martini glass that's been 1/2 rimmed with sugar
