  2. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 45-50 minutes, or until the cranberries have burst and the sauce has thickened slightly, stirring occasionally.
  3. Remove from heat and let cool completely. The sauce will thicken further as it cools.
  4. Taste and adjust sweetness as needed. If desired, add a pinch of salt to enhance the flavors.
  5. Serve warm or chilled. Enjoy!
