Ingredients

12 ounces fresh cranberries

1 cup sugar

1 large jalapeno, seeded and finely diced

1 tablespoon lime juice

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

3 tablespoons minced crystallized ginger

2 tablespoons tequila (optional)

1/2 cup water

Directions

Place sugar, lime juice, jalapenos, cayenne, and salt in a heavy bottom saucepan over medium-high heat. Add water, then stir to dissolve sugar, and simmer for 2 minutes.

Add cranberries, crystallized ginger, and tequila. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally, until cranberries have softened and no liquid remains in pan, about 15 minutes.

Cool before serving.

May be stored up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator.
