Cranberry Sauce

As a kid, watching cranberry sauce come out of a tin and hold its shape was completely unappetizing, so I never cared for it. But this year I saw some fresh cranberries in the local store so tried to make it from scratch. With reduced sugar, it was still really sweet, but was a nice accompaniment to the turkey drumsticks and the brisket for Thanksgiving dinners. The bags are sold in 250 g units here so I adjusted the recipe accordingly. This makes quite a lot so could halve the recipe next time for a single bag.

• 
  500 g fresh cranberries (2 bags at Jumbo)
  
• scant 1 c sugar (4/5 c?)
• scant 1/2 c brown sugar (1/3 c?)
• scant 1/2 c water
• 1 c fresh squeezed orange juice
• optional: cinnamon

1. In a small pot, heat sugars, water and OJ. Dissolve the sugar and bring to a boil.
2. Add in cranberries. Bring to simmer and stir occasionally for 10-15 minutes, until most of the cranberries have burst. Continue simmering until reduced to desired consistency. (It will further thicken after cooling).
3. Transfer to bowl and let cool for at least 20 min.
4. Transfer to containers. Store in fridge until ready to use.
