Ingredients

  • 6 cups cranberries
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon cloves
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 3/4 cup raw honey

Instructions

  • Place the cranberries and spices in a food processor or blender and chop until they are the texture of chunky relish.
  • Pour the cranberries into a bowl and stir in the honey.
  • Place the mixture in a quart Mason jar, packing it down as you go.
  • Once all of the cranberries are in the jar, wipe off any cranberry residue that's on the sides of the jar.
  • Screw on the lid and place in a dark location at room temperature, between 65 and 75 degrees.
  • Every day or so, slightly unscrew the lid to release any pressure that has built up through fermentation.
  • Let the cranberries ferment for 3-5 days or until you like the flavor.
  • Once they are done fermenting, place the jar in the fridge to store. Enjoy with a delicious holiday meal!

Notes

  • The warmer the temperature, the faster the cranberries will ferment.
