📝 Preparation Steps
1
Cook 1 (12-oz.) bag fresh or frozen cranberries, ¾ cup granulated sugar, 1–2 Tbsp. Grand Marnier, Cointreau, or other orange liqueur (if using), 1 Tbsp. finely grated orange zest, a pinch of kosher salt, and 1 cup water in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring often to keep sauce from sticking to bottom of pan and burning, until cranberries start to burst and become jammy (sauce should coat a spoon), about ⏱️ 10 minutes. Let cool before serving. Do ahead: Cranberry sauce can be made 5 days ahead. Transfer to an airtight container; cover and refrigerate until well chilled.
