Directions

  1. Combine the apple cider, sugar, cinnamon sticks, orange zest, and cloves in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat. Turn heat to low, simmer until sugar is dissolved and the flavors are blended, 10 to 15 minutes.

  2. Stir cranberries into the saucepan, turn heat to high, and bring to a boil. Cook, stirring constantly, until cranberries begin to pop, 5 to 10 minutes. Reduce heat to low, and cook until sauce begins to thicken, about 5 minutes. Remove cinnamon sticks and cloves. Pour into shallow dish to cool and serve.

Recipe Note

This is my absolute favorite cranberry sauce. The apple cider and hint of orange combined with the warm spices just makes it special.
