Measure all ingredients together into a medium sized saucepan.
3 cups fresh cranberries, 1 cup granulated organic cane sugar, 1 cups orange juice, 1 - 2 tablespoons finely grated ginger
Cook over medium heat for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Use the back of a spoon to smash the berries a bit. If you prefer a finer texture, press through a sieve, use an immersion blender to process the cranberry sauce, or transfer it to a blender to make more of a puree.
Cool to room temperature.
Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator for several days.
