Steps:

• Put cranberries in a pot on the stove, and pick through to remove soft and/or brown ones.
• Add the rest of the ingredients, stir, and bring to a boil on medium-high heat.
• Stir frequently - the cranberries will pop, and then release their "gel" and the sauce will come together like magic. This takes about 10 minutes.
• Remove from heat and let cool completely before refrigerating.
