How to prepare Cranberry Orange Sauce?

In a medium saucepan put orange juice, pomegranate juice and sugar.  Warm up at medium temperature, until sugar is melted. Add cranberries, cinnamon stick, nutmeg and orange zest. Bring to boil, stirring from time to time, for about 20 minutes.

Combine cornstarch with some juice from the saucepan, in a small dish. Mix until well combined, then pour into the saucepan and cook until it thickens, stirring constantly. Don‘t let it become too thick, because it will thicken some more while cooling.

Remove from heat and let cool at a room temperature, then put in the fridge to cool completely. As you can see, it couldn‘t be easier.
