Preparation

Step 1

•Gather the allspice and star anise in a 4-inch square of cheesecloth and tie into a bundle. Combine the sugar, orange juice, 1/4 cup water, and the spice bundle in a small saucepan set over medium heat.
•Cook, stirring occasionally, until the sugar melts and the liquid begins to bubble. Remove from heat and let the spices steep for 10 minutes. Return the pan to the stovetop, add the cranberries and the zest, and cook over medium-high heat until the berries just begin to pop — about 7 minutes.
•Remove pan from heat, remove the sachet, transfer the mixture to a serving bowl, and chill. Can be refrigerated for up to 3 days.
