Spiced Cranberry Wine Sauce

Spiced Cranberry Wine Sauce

2 cups zinfandel or other fruity dry red wine

3/4 cup sugar

5 (2") orange rind strips

1/2 cup fresh orange juice

6 whole cloves

4 slices peeled fresh ginger

2 (3") cinamon sticks

3 cups fresh or frozen cranberries

Combine all ingredients except cranberries in a medium saucepan, bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium, and cook 15 minutes or until mixture begins to thicken and sugar dissolves, stirring occasionally. Strain the mixture through a sieve into a bowl, and discard the solids. Return mixture to pan.

Add cranberries and cook over high heat 10 minutes or until berries pop. Reduce heat to low and simmer 30 minutes or until mixture is slightly thick.

Pour into a bowl & let cool.
