Orange Liqueur
 

Orange Liqueur


3 large oranges
3 cups 80 proof vodka
1&1/2 cups superfine sugar


Remove the orange colored rind thinly from the oranges.
Make sure you don't get any of the white membrane or the liqueur will
have a bitter taste.
Blot the peel with a paper towel to remove the oil.
Put the peel in a jar with screw top and add 2 cups of the vodka.
Store it in a cool place for about 2 days.
After two days remove the peel add the sugar and shake vigorously until
all the sugar is dissolved.
Add the other 1 cup of vodka and close the jar.
Store it in a cool dark place for a month at least.
