I've been researching liqueur recipes to make as hostess gifts for Rosh Hashana. This one is delicious, great drizzled on some vanilla ice cream.
Ingredients:
3 large oranges
3 cups vodka
1 1/3 cups superfine sugar
Directions:
1. Wash the oranges well with soap and water.
2. Pare very thinly the bright-colored rind from the oranges (no white).
3. Blot the peel on paper towels to remove any excess oil.
4. Put the peel in a 4 cup screw-top jar.
5. Add 2 cups vodka.
6. Close jar.
7. Store in a cool, dark place for 2 days or until the vodka has absorbed the flavor.
8. Remove the peel and add the remaining vodka, along with the superfine sugar.
9. Close the jar and store in a cool dark place at least 1 month to age.
