Soak the dried apricots in the cranberry juice in a medium saucepan for ten minutes. Add the remaining ingredients and stir them well. Cook, stirring occasionally, over medium heat until the cranberries have popped and the syrup has thickened slightly that should take about 5 minutes. Let the sauce cool to room temperature, then refrigerate it (covered) until it's *cold*. It can be stored in the fridgipater for up to a week. Transfer the sauce to a serving dish and serve while it's still cold. The colder the better, so long as it isn't frozen.
