- 5 (3 inch) cinnamon sticks
- 8 whole allspice berries
- 8 whole cloves
- 6 cups fresh cranberries
- 2 1/4 cups orange juice
- 4 Gala apples, peeled, cored and diced
- 4 Bosc pears, peeled, cored and diced
- 3 cups white sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar
- Place the cinnamon sticks, allspice berries, and cloves onto the center of a 8 inch square piece of cheesecloth. Gather together the edges of the cheesecloth, and tie with kitchen twine to secure. Place the sachet into a large saucepan along with the cranberries and orange juice. Bring to a boil over high heat, and cook until the berries begin to burst, about 10 minutes.
- Stir in the apples, pears, white sugar, and brown sugar. Return to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer about 25 minutes until the apples and pears are slightly soft. Remove and discard the spice sachet. Scrape the sauce into a bowl, cover, and refrigerate overnight. Serve cold.
