Low FODMAP Cranberry Sauce

0 Boil the liquids & herbs/spices. In a saucepan over medium-high heat, add water, pomegranate juice, and granulated monkfruit or white sugar if using. Bring to a slow, rolling boil and add in orange slices, cinnamon sticks, and fresh thyme sprigs. Reduce heat to low and allow to simmer 8-10 minutes. Remove orange, cinnamon, and thyme and bring heat back up to medium-low.
1 Cook the cranberries. Add juice from 1 orange, orange zest, pinch of salt and 1 full package of fresh cranberries. Cook until cranberries begin to burst, around 12 to 15 minutes. The sauce will thicken as the liquids cook off. If yours hasn't thickened in 15 minutes, cook a few minutes longer on medium low heat to allow more liquid to cook off.
2 Serve. Remove from heat + pour into heat proof container. Serve immediately warm or allow to come down to room temperature depending on your preference.
