1
Rinse and Sort Cranberries
Rinse the fresh cranberries under cold water, removing any stems or bruised berries.
2
Combine Ingredients
In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed cranberries, granulated sugar, and water.

3
Simmer the Sauce
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to medium-low and let it simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally until the cranberries have burst and the sauce has thickened.
4
Add Flavorings
Once the sauce has thickened, stir in the Grand Marnier, orange zest, and the cinnamon stick. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.

5
Cool and Store
Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the cranberry sauce to cool to room temperature. Discard the cinnamon stick. If desired, stir in chopped walnuts or dried cranberries for added texture.
6
Serve
Transfer the cranberry sauce to a serving dish or airtight container. It can be served immediately or refrigerated for up to a week.
