Cook the Mixture
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apricots break down and the mixture thickens slightly.

Cool and Store
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the mixture cool to room temperature. Discard the cinnamon stick. Transfer the mostarda to sterilized jars and refrigerate. It can be enjoyed after 24 hours and will keep for up to 2 weeks.
