My wife and I serve spicy cranberry sauce every year at our
Thanksgiving dinner.  The attendants are always different (i.e.,
whoever isn't traveling and doesn't have family in the area) but
everyone always loves it.  I make cranberry sauce from one bag of
fresh cranberries (using recommended amount of water and sugar and
adding some orange zest) and then while it's still warm, stir in
homemade habanero jelly to taste.  Once cooled, stir in some chopped
cilantro.  I know it sounds a little funny, but trust me here, OK?
