Tasty Tuesday: Sweet Ham Sauce

For a long time, every time we have ham for a meal, I have made a sauce that is a variation on one my grandmother used to make. It is very simple and quick to make and adds a special zing to the ham. It is really sweet so a little goes a long way (unless you are my 7 year old, who will practically drink it straight out of the dish.)
We drizzle it on the sliced ham after it comes out of the oven. I have never tried to use it as a glaze while baking.
Enjoy!
