In a small saucepan, combine the apricot preserves, fresh lemon juice, lime juice, and lime zest. Stir until well mixed.
Add the pineapple juice, freshly grated ginger, and brown sugar to the saucepan. Stir to dissolve the sugar.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Gradually whisk the slurry into the saucepan to thicken the glaze.
Cook the glaze for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until it reaches a smooth and slightly thickened consistency.
Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the glaze to cool slightly before using.
Brush the glaze over your desired dish (e.g., grilled salmon, roasted chicken, or vegetables) and bake or grill as needed to caramelize.
Store any leftover glaze in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
