Ingredients
- 12 ounces fresh cranberries
- 1 large grapefruit (peeled and segmented)
- 1 teaspoon orange zest
- 0.25 cup fresh orange juice
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger (grated)
- 0.25 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 cup water
Directions
Step 1
Rinse the cranberries under cool running water and set them aside to drain.
Step 2
Peel the grapefruit and separate it into segments, removing any seeds and membranes. Cut the segments into small pieces and set aside.
Step 3
In a medium saucepan, combine the water, orange juice, and granulated sugar over medium heat. Stir until the sugar is dissolved.
Step 4
Add the fresh cranberries to the saucepan and bring the mixture to a gentle boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 8-10 minutes, or until the cranberries begin to burst.
Step 5
Stir in the grapefruit pieces, orange zest, honey, grated ginger, and ground cinnamon. Continue to cook for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, to allow the flavors to blend.
Step 6
Remove the saucepan from heat and transfer the mixture to a bowl. Let the relish cool to room temperature before serving.
Step 7
For best results, refrigerate the cranberry grapefruit relish for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld together. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
