Yummy Raspberry Chipotle Sauce is a delicious condiment that can be used to add flavor and complexity to a variety of dishes. Sweet and spicy, this sauce is made from a simple mixture of raspberries, sugar, ruby port, and chipotle chiles in adobo. The raspberries give the sauce a bright, fresh flavor, while the chipotle chile adds a smoky, spicy kick. This sauce is perfect for drizzling over grilled meats, roasted vegetables, or even ice cream for a fun twist.

Instructions

1.	In a saucepan, combine the raspberries, sugar, and port. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has dissolved and the raspberries have broken down, about 7 minutes.
2.	Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the chipotle chile. Use a hand blender or transfer the mixture to a blender or food processor, and puree until smooth.
3.	Return the mixture to the saucepan and simmer over medium heat until the sauce has thickened and reduced slightly, about 10 minutes.
4.	Adjust the seasoning to taste, adding more sugar or chipotle chile if desired.
