Instructions
Prep orange: Zest the orange, then cut it in half and juice it. You should have about 1/2 cup juice.
Cook cranberries: In a medium saucepan, combine cranberries, orange juice, sugar, honey, and a pinch of salt. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
Simmer: Cook for 8–10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cranberries burst and the mixture thickens.
Flavor boost: Stir in orange zest, cinnamon, and ginger (if using). Taste and adjust sweetness or acidity as desired.
Cool & serve: Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature. The relish will thicken further as it cools.
Storage: Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
