- You can add a little orange juice to round up and sweeten the flavor if you like.
Can we use fresh or frozen cranberries?
We recommend fresh cranberries rather than frozen ones for this cranberry salsa recipe because thawed frozen cranberries will be a bit mushier. If you want frozen cranberries, you must thaw them completely before using them.
How to serve cranberry dip
You can serve cranberry dip plain, as you would any salsa, with crackers or tortilla chips.
How to keep cranberry dip leftovers
