Cranberry Sauce

There isnt much to say about this classic cranberry sauce, except that I used to hate cranberry sauce. I really enjoy this take on the cranberry sauce my grampy used to bring to Thanksgiving every year.

Ingredients

  • 1 bag fresh cranberries

  • 1 cup orange juice, freshly squeezed if possible

  • 1 cup sugar

  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon

  • 1/2 tsp ground ginger

  • Bring sugar and orange juice to boil in a medium saucepan. Stir occasionally until sugar is dissolved.
  • Add cranberries and cook for about 10 minutes, or until cranberries have popped open.
