Combine sugar, orange juice, and water in a large saucepan over medium heat. Stir to combine.

Step 2

Add cranberries, salt, cinnamon stick and orange peel.

Step 3

Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring frequently.

Step 4

Continue cooking, for about 10 minutes, or until all or most of the cranberries have popped. I like to leave a handful of berries whole.

Can be made up to 3 days in advance.
