Steps:

• Add the sugar to a sauce pan. Pour in the orange juice, wine, zest, cinnamon stick and spices. Bring that up to a simmer on medium heat. When it's simmering, add the cranberries.

• Add a 1/4 cup of cold water and turn off the heat. Don't worry if a couple berries didn't pop, as they will break down as the sauce is cooled and stirred. Take out the cinnamon stick. As the sauce cools it will get very thick. Cool to room temperature, stir, and refrigerate until needed. This will keep for several weeks.
