• 2 mix all ingredients except for the brown sugar in medium sauce pan and bring the sauce to a simmer.
• 3 as soon as the sauce is hot, add in the brown sugar and stir until it is all disolved.
• 4 allow the sauce to simmer until it begins to thicken, remember to stir every once in a while to prevent scorching.
• 5 remove from heat and transfer the sauce to a blender. puree until smooth.
• 6 transfer the sauce into another container and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, this will allow the flavors to marry and for the sauce to fully set.
