ingredients

3 ¹⁄₂ cups fresh cranberries (about 14 ounces)
³⁄₄ cup pomegranate juice
¹⁄₄ cup pomegranate molasses
³⁄₄ cup sugar
¹⁄₄ cup fresh meyer lemon juice
2 tablespoons finely grated meyer lemon peel

directions

Combine first 5 ingredients in large saucepan. Stir over medium-high heat until sugar dissolves.
Bring mixture to boil.
Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer until the cranberries begin to burst; stirring often, about every 5 minutes. Cook about 15-20 minutes. If the cranberries are boiling too much, reduce heat.
Stir in the Meyer lemon zest. Taste test and correct with more pomegranate and/or sugar if needed.
Transfer to storage container, cover and chill.
Note: the sauce can be prepared 3 days ahead.
Tip: I made the sauce four days in advance of Thanksgiving and froze it. I like the flavor best at room temperature.
