While this spicy cranberry sauce is simmering, the wonderful fragrance of the spices brings back happy memories of when my mother made it for the holidays. My husband and three sons are glad I’m carrying on her tradition! —Allison Thompson, Lansing Michigan

I made this, but my review didn't show up.  It's a great recipe especially if you sugar it to your taste.  I use 1 cup of sugar.

I discovered this in 2012, and my mom and I made it together when she came across the country to spend Thanksgiving with my baby daughter and me. We rarely agreed on sweet/spicy things, but we both LOVED this recipe and emailed it to each other! She passed a couple of years ago; I'm so glad to have this recipe to remember a wonderful time with her.

This is the perfect amount of sweetness, tartness, and yummy spices. I'd never had a spiced cranberry sauce before finding this recipe. It's now my favorite!!!

I've made this twice, once as written and once tweaked a little.  The second time I made it, I used half white sugar and half brown sugar and instead of water, I used apple cider.  It's great both ways, but we loved the changes!

I prefer to serve homemade cranberry sauce instead of canned for my New Year's Day dinner.  This is my favorite recipe thus far.

Besides the quickness of assembling this dish, the blend of flavors was spot on. Stirring occasionally and tasting along the way made me even more appreciative of this simple yet elegant side dish. This will also travel in the car well!

This is my family's favourite cranberry sauce.  I double the spices and cut the sugar to 1 1/2 c. Love it for the holidays and use the leftovers in Greek yoghurt for a dessert/snack treat. The next time I make it, I am going to try adding some lemon zest, as another comment suggested.

This is the only cranberry sauce I have ever tasted so I have nothing to compare it to, but I've made it 3 times now and think it's pretty amazing! I do find it a bit heavy on the spice but it doesn't bother me enough to make any changes.

This was my first time making homemade Cranberry Sauce.  So easy and absolutely delicious!!!  I will not be buying in jar or can again.

This is deliciously fresh, and so easy.  I added zest of lemon --- perfect, yummy!

I found this recipe in 2009 and my family wants it each year since then.  Spicy, sweet, tart and just great.

I've made this the past two years.  This year for Turkey Day and Christmas. Family loves the spicy kick.

Made this for Thanksgiving and everyone raved and wanted the recipe.  It was delicious.

This is one of the very best things I have EVER made!  Love the spice.~ Theresa

I made this last Thanksgiving, and just made it again for this one. I tastes as good as it smells. It is great on a left over turkey sandwich also.

I love this sauce. Everyone who tried it did also. It goes well with chicken as well as turkey.

I am making this for our family thanksgiving dinner. It is SOOO GOOD!! The spices make it different from other cranberry sauces, but it is a welcome change! My family and friends really enjoy it!

Loved it!  Lots of compliments.  Followed recipe as written.

Easy to make and very tasty. I made it 3 ways.  #1 as stated in recipe and I loved the flavors. #2 I added 1tsp orange zest. Excellent but my husband doesn’t like oranges. #3 as stated in the recipe but 1/2 the amount of spices. This was his favorite.

I combined 2 of your  recipes--this one and added 1 tsp. vanilla, chopped almonds, and probably another cup of sugar.  My husband prefers sweet rather than tangy cranberries.Both of us thought the results was delicious.  I'm sure I'll keep making this way rather than the old family way.

I made this for friends on Thanksgiving, and had such great comments about it that I made it again for my family for Christmas dinner. I make it the night before I need it, since then it is well set and the flavor of the spices really comes out.

will be making it for the third year in a row.  just added 1 can of manderine oranges.
