Ingredients

* 1 tablespoon olive oil
* 1 small red onion, chopped
* 4 cloves garlic, chopped
* 1-2 jalapenos, seeded and chopped
* 1/2 cup bourbon
* 2 cups fresh or frozen (not thawed) blueberries
* 1/2 cup ketchup (sugar free or low salt)
* 1/3 cup cider vinegar
* 2 tablespoons brown sugar (there is a new brown sugar out. I must find it)
* 1 tablespoon molasses
* 1/8 teaspoon ground allspice

Preparation

1. Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and just starting to brown, 2 to 4 minutes. Add garlic and jalapeno and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add bourbon, increase heat to high and bring to a boil; cook until most of the liquid has evaporated, about 5 minutes. Stir in blueberries, ketchup, vinegar, brown sugar, molasses and allspice; return to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until thickened, about 20 minutes.

Tips & Notes
