Combine cranberries, sugar, and water in a saucepan over medium heat.

Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally until the sugar dissolves.

Reduce heat and simmer for 10-15 minutes until cranberries burst and sauce thickens.

Stir in orange juice, orange zest, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.

Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature.

Transfer to a serving dish and refrigerate until ready to serve.
