How to Make Raspberry Rhubarb Sauce

  1. Combine 4 cups chopped rhubarb, 1 cup water, 1 cup granulated sugar, and the zest of 1 orange in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
  2. Reduce heat to low and simmer gently, uncovered, for 10-15 minutes, or until the rhubarb is tender and has broken down slightly. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
  3. Remove from heat and carefully stir in 2 cups fresh raspberries (or 1 cup frozen raspberries, thawed), 1 tablespoon lemon juice, and 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  4. Let the sauce cool completely. The flavors will meld beautifully as it cools. Taste and adjust sweetness if needed.
