Ingredients

  • 3 cinnamon sticks

  • 5 whole cloves

  • 5 whole allspice berries

  • 4 cups fresh cranberries

  • 1 ½ cups water

  • 2 cups white sugar

Directions

  1. Wrap cinnamon sticks, cloves, and allspice berries in a spice bag.

  2. Combine cranberries, water, and spice bag in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook until cranberries begin to burst, about 10 minutes.

  3. Stir in sugar and reduce the heat to low. Continue cooking until sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes.

  4. Remove and discard spice bag. Cover cranberry sauce and chill in the refrigerator before serving, 8 hours to overnight.
