In a medium saucepan, combine the ketchup, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, and molasses. Whisk until smooth.
Add Worcestershire sauce, mustard, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, salt, and cayenne pepper (if using). Stir to combine.
Add the water and stir until the mixture is well blended.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally.
Reduce the heat to low and simmer uncovered for 15-20 minutes, stirring often to prevent sticking or burning, until the sauce thickens.
Taste the sauce and adjust seasonings if desired.
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the sauce cool slightly.
Transfer the sauce to a jar or airtight container. Refrigerate for up to 2 weeks or use immediately.
