Steps:
- Bring 1 cup water, 1/2 cup sugar, and 1/4 cup crème de cassis to boil in heavy medium saucepan over high heat, stirring to dissolve sugar. Add fresh cranberries; return to boil.

Chill until cold, at least 4 hours and up to 3 days.
Tips:
- For a boozy twist, add your favorite liquor to the sauce. Vodka, rum, and whiskey all work well.
- If you don't have fresh cranberries, you can use frozen cranberries. Just thaw them before using.
- You can also add other fruits to the sauce, such as oranges, apples, or pears.
- If you want a chunky sauce, don't overcook the cranberries. Cook them just until they start to burst.
- If you want a smooth sauce, use a food processor or blender to puree the cranberries.
