Recipe information

  • Yield

    Makes about 1½ cups

Ingredients

1 large navel orange with skin
7 cups water, divided
½ cup sugar
2 cinnamon sticks, divided
¼ cup (packed) golden brown sugar
1 tablespoon dark rum
2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
⅛ teaspoon ground allspice
½ cup fresh or frozen cranberries

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Cut orange into ¼" thick rounds; cut rounds into ¼" cubes. Place in heavy medium saucepan; add 3 cups water. Bring to boil. Reduce heat and simmer 10 minutes. Drain, rinse, and drain well. Boil again with 3 cups water; rinse and drain.
