Spiced Cranberry Sauce with Honey Recipe

  • 1 3/4 cups cranberry juice cocktail
  • 3/4 cup honey
  • 1 tablespoon grated orange peel
  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 teaspoon minced peeled fresh ginger
  • 3/4 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 whole cloves
  • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 12-ounce bag fresh or frozen cranberries
  1. Combine 1 1/2 cups cranberry juice cocktail, honey and orange peel in heavy medium saucepan. Bring mixture to simmer over medium heat, stirring until honey dissolves. Simmer 4 minutes to blend flavors. Add cinnamon stick, bay leaf, ginger, coriander, salt, black pepper, cloves and cayenne pepper; simmer 2 minutes. Add cranberries and simmer until berries burst and sauce is thick, stirring occasionally, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat. Discard bay leaf; mix in remaining 1/4 cup cranberry juice cocktail. Refrigerate cranberry sauce until well chilled. (Can be prepared 3 days ahead. Cover and keep refrigerated.)
