Method:

1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10 inch tube pan. Sift together the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt; set aside.
2
In a large bowl, mix together 1 cup of white sugar, 1/3 cup of orange juice, eggs, buttermilk, cranberry liqueur, and vegetable oil using an electric mixer.
3
Add the dry ingredients and mix just until moistened. Fold in the chopped dates, cranberries and orange zest.
4
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
5
Bake for 1 hour in the preheated oven, or until a knife inserted into the crown of the cake comes out clean.
6
Let the cake cool in the pan set over a wire rack for 15 to 20 minutes.
7
Remove the cake from the pan and place on a serving plate. In a small saucepan, stir together 1 cup of orange juice and 3/4 cup of white sugar. Bring to a boil, stirring until the sugar has dissolved. Use a turkey baster or large spoon to drizzle the sauce over the cake. Poke the cake with a fork or skewer to help it absorb all of the sauce, or until the cake is thoroughly moistened.
