Overview
This simple recipe offers a double dose of anti-inflammatory protection. Cranberries contribute phytonutrients, which may lower the risk of inflammation. Florida orange juice provides hesperidin, another potential chronic inflammation fighter, which may also act as an antioxidant. Enjoy this lightly sweetened compote as a topping for oatmeal and yogurt parfaits or served alongside cooked meats.

Ingredients

8 fluid ounces Florida Orange Juice
24 ounces fresh cranberries, rinsed and stems removed
3 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh ginger
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
3 tablespoons cornstarch
