Ingredients
  • 1 1/4 cups  water
  • 1 1/4 cups  sugar
  • 1/3 cup  maple syrup
  • 1 pound  fresh cranberries
  • 1/4 cup  orange juice
  • 1/4 cup  orange rind, cut into thin strips
  • 1 tablespoon  grated orange zest
  • 2 tablespoons  coarsely chopped candied ginger
  • 1 cup  walnuts, pecans, or your favorite nut, coarsely chopped
