Makes about 3 1/2 cups
12 oz. fresh cranberries
2/3 c. goji berries (available in Henry's Market Bulk Department)
1/4 c. chopped dried apricots
1 medium shallot, chopped
1 c. organic apple cider
2/3 c. sugar or 1 c. brown rice syrup
2 Tbsp. Henry's Market Organic Maple Syrup
1 1/2 Tbsp. fresh grated ginger
1 tsp. cinnamon
pinch cayenne pepper
pinch allspice
1/2 tsp. salt
1/3 c. chopped walnuts
zest of one orange
Combine cranberries, goji berries, apricots and shallots in a saucepan. Add cider and enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, then turn down to a simmer. Cook for 15 minutes, or until the goji berries are soft and plump, and the cranberries “pop.” Stir in sweetener, maple syrup, spices and salt. Cook 5 minutes longer. Adjust seasonings, remove from heat, and stir in walnuts and orange zest. Cool to room temperature. Store in a covered container in refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
