Ultimate homemade cranberry sauce

Method

1. Put all the ingredients apart from the brandy/rum in a medium saucepan over a medium heat. Bring to a simmer, then cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

2. Stir in the brandy/rum and simmer for a few more minutes or until the cranberries have burst and the sauce is thick and glossy (remember it will thicken further as it cools). Set aside to cool, then store in the fridge until needed.
