Ingredients

2 cinnamon sticks broken into two inch pieces

12 whole cloves

3 quarter sized slices of fresh peeled ginger

1 1/3 cups of orange juice

1/3 cup of packed light brown sugar

2/3 cup of raisins

pinch of salt

several grinds of fresh nutmeg

1/3 cup of brandy or Cointreau or use 1/4 cup of each (my fav)

1 can of apricot halves drained

1 can of sliced pears, drained

1 can of sliced peaches, drained

1 can of pitted dark sweet cherries, drained

Directions

Cut an 8 inch square double thickness of cheesecloth.

Put cinnamon sticks, cloves and ginger slices in the middle and bundle it into a bag and tie up with kitchen twine.

In a large sauce pan, combine the orange juice, raisins, brown sugar.

Add the spice bag, salt and nutmeg.

Bring to a boil.

Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes.

Add fruit and brandy/Cointreau and simmer for less than five minutes, just enough to heat the fruit thoroughly..

Discard spice bag and serve fruit warm.

*as a topping for waffles or pancakes*

*as a topping for vanilla ice cream*

*in a dish topped with whipped cream and granola or crushed ginger snaps as a dessert*
