Honey liqueur
1 Quart
Ingredients
| Quantity | Ingredient | |
|---|---|---|
| 2 | cups | Vodka or brandy |
| ¾ | pounds | Honey |
| 3 | tablespoons | Orange rind, or 1/2 the |
| Peel of an orange | ||
| 1 | cup | Water, warm but not boiling |
| 1 | Clove | |
| 2 | Cinnamon sticks, 2 inches ea | |
Directions
Peel the orange find in one long spiral if possible, particularly if you want an attractive presentation. Disolve the honey in the water and add to the vodka and spices in an attractive bottle with the orange peel.
Let stand, well corked shaking every few days. I like the flavor well developed, and do not usually strain it at all, but check it after 2 or 3 weeks, and if you don't want too strong an orange spice flavor, strain the peel and spices out and rebottle. Submitted By SOLIVER@... (SUZANEOLIVER) On
