Mix water and sugar together in a saucepan over medium heat until sugar is dissolved and mixture is boiling, about 5 minutes. Add cranberries, jalapeño peppers, and lemon juice; return to boil.
Step 2
Reduce heat to a gentle simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until cranberries have broken down and sauce has thickened, 10 to 25 minutes. Stir in sherry.

Remove from the heat and let cool to room temperature. Serve or transfer to a glass container, cover, and refrigerate until ready to serve.
