Rinse the cranberries under cool water and discard any that are soft or discolored.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, combine the cranberries, granulated sugar, and orange juice.

Step 3

Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally.

Once the cranberries begin to burst (about 5-7 minutes), reduce the heat to low and simmer for an additional 5 minutes.

Step 5

Stir in the horseradish, Dijon mustard, pineapple preserves, ground black pepper, and cayenne pepper, if using.

Step 6

Continue cooking for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens slightly and all ingredients are well-combined.

Step 8

Transfer the sauce to a serving dish or airtight container. Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 1 week. Allow the sauce to come to room temperature before serving if refrigerated.
