4 cup apple cider 2 tablespoon cold water 2 teaspoon cornstarch ¼ cup butter 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger 1 teaspoon finely shredded orange peel
If you have a stockpot large enough to fit the bird that will also fit into the refrigerator, go ahead and use the pot instead of the brining bag.

To chop the ginger with ease, peel about a 4-inch piece of fresh ginger and cut into pieces. Place in a food processor, cover, and process with on/off turns until finely chopped.
**
For ice water, fill a glass measuring cup with ice, then add the water. Repeat as needed until you reach 12 cups total.
