Spiked Rhubarb Sauce

Submitted by CountryLady

"I had no suitable liquid (such as orange juice) in the fridge for making my rhubarb sauce so I used semi sweet red wine. The result was a sweet & tart sauce that was awesome & I will NEVER use orange juice again!"

Had some leftover rhubarb from making pie so downsized this recipe to make a small jar. Had a taste before putting it in the jar and it was delicious. Looking forward to putting it over ice cream in the near future.

I was anticipating making this sauce long before the lush shoots appeared this spring. I was not disappointed! While the family prefer the simply made sauce I found this spiked version absolutely delicious and will definitely make it again. Thanks Country Lady.
