Instructions
  1. In a small saucepan, combine all of the ingredients and heat over a medium high and bring to a boil. Turn down to a simmer and cook the sauce, stirring frequently, until almost all of the cranberries have burst and the sauce has thickened, about 6-8 minutes.
  2. Remove from the heat and transfer to a bowl. Refrigerate until you are ready to serve, for up to 5 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
Recipe Notes

Do ahead or delegate: Make the sauce and refrigerate for 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months.

Scramble flavor booster: Add another teaspoon of ginger or a pinch of salt.
