Ingredients
- 12 ounces Fresh cranberries
- 0.5 cups Dried cranberries
- 0.5 cups Cranberry juice
- 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cups Orange juice
- 1 teaspoons Orange zest
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.125 teaspoons Ground cloves
- 0.5 cups Water
Directions
Step 1
Rinse and sort the fresh cranberries, discarding any that are bruised or soft.
Step 2
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the cranberry juice, orange juice, water, and granulated sugar. Stir well and bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat.
Step 3
Once the sugar has dissolved, add the fresh cranberries, dried cranberries, orange zest, ground cinnamon, and ground cloves to the saucepan.
Step 4
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low. Let it simmer for 12-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the fresh cranberries burst and the sauce starts to thicken.
Step 5
Taste the sauce and adjust sweetness with more sugar, if desired, or add a splash more orange juice for extra tang.
Step 6
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the cranberry sauce cool to room temperature. It will thicken further as it cools.
Step 7
Once cooled, transfer the cranberry sauce to a serving dish or store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
Step 8
Serve alongside roasted turkey, ham, or your favorite holiday dishes, and enjoy!
