   In a large colander, strain the berries with a bowl under it so you
   can save the juice.
   Place the cornstarch in a medium saucepan and stir in the juice. Turn
   on the heat to medium and cook, stirring, until the juice becomes
   thick and translucent, about 10 to 15 minutes. Let it cool.
   Place the berries in an attractive bowl. Pour the sauce over the
   fruit. Add the oranges and stir gently. Cover and chill until serving
   time.
