The warmth of ginger, cloves, and brown sugar and the brightness of orange juice and zest come together to make this family-favorite cranberry sauce. If you can't find fresh cranberries, you can use frozen ones — just simmer them a few minutes longer. Make this ahead of time, and save yourself some stress on the big day!

Ingredients

  • 0.75 cups water
  • 0.75 cups brown sugar
  • 0.25 cups freshly squeezed orange juice
  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
  • 1 teaspoon grated orange zest
  • 0.13 teaspoons salt
  • 0.13 teaspoons ground cloves
  • 0.13 teaspoons ground allspice
  • 1 bag fresh cranberries , 12 ounce

Instructions

  1. 1

    Combine water, brown sugar, orange juice, cinnamon stick, ginger, orange zest, salt, cloves, and allspice in a medium saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until sugar is dissolved, 3 to 5 minutes.

  2. 2

    Stir in cranberries and return to a boil over medium heat. Cook until cranberries start to burst and mixture thickens slightly, 8 to 10 minutes; sauce will thicken further upon cooling.

  3. 3

    Transfer cranberry sauce to a bowl; remove and discard cinnamon stick. Store in the refrigerator until serving.
