How to Make Spiced Tea Cranberry Sauce
- In a 4-quart pot, combine 1 cup of water, 1 cup of granulated sugar, 1 cinnamon stick (3 inches), 2 whole cloves, and 1/2 teaspoon of ground allspice.
- Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 10 minutes, covered.
- Add 2 Earl Grey tea bags and simmer for 2 minutes.
- Carefully remove the tea bags, cinnamon stick, cloves, and allspice using a slotted spoon. Add 12 ounces (about 3 cups) of fresh or frozen cranberries.
- Increase heat to medium-high and simmer, stirring frequently, until cranberries soften, burst, and the sauce thickens (about 12-15 minutes).
- Remove from heat and let cool completely to room temperature before serving. For best flavor, cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or up to 4 days.
