Ingredients
- 12 ounces Fresh cranberries
- 0.5 cup Honey
- 3 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 0.5 cup Water
- 1 piece Fresh rosemary sprig
- 0.125 teaspoon Salt
Directions
Step 1
Rinse the cranberries under cold water and pick out any soft or spoiled ones.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan, combine the honey, lemon juice, lemon zest, water, and salt over medium heat. Stir until the honey dissolves completely.
Step 3
Add the cranberries and the fresh rosemary sprig to the saucepan. Increase the heat to medium-high and bring the mixture to a boil.
Step 4
Reduce the heat to medium-low and let the cranberry mixture simmer for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cranberries burst and the sauce thickens.
Step 5
Remove the saucepan from the heat and discard the rosemary sprig.
Step 6
Allow the cranberry sauce to cool slightly before transferring it to a serving dish. The sauce will continue to thicken as it cools.
Step 7
Serve warm, at room temperature, or chilled. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
