Can you make cranberry sauce out of Ukrainian Cranberry bushes

OK, right - doggone non-Latin names. I don’t think you could make something resembling the ‘cranberry jelly’ that American cranberry sauce seems closest to, but they make good jam, at least some spp.

The Ukrainians (and E Europeans in general) do this a lot - also compote, ‘kisel’, etc.

In Ukrainian Viburnum is called ‘kalina’.

See a thread I started a month or so back RE Viburnum edule (my favorite, I think the best admittedly haven’t tried many but this one is enough!).
