Flavor Enhancers

Method

Preparation

1

Prepare the Orange Peels

Using a vegetable peeler, remove the outer skin of the oranges, ensuring to avoid the white pith as much as possible. You need about 2 cups of orange peels.

2

Combine Ingredients

In a large glass container or jar, combine the orange peels, cognac, and sugar. Stir gently to mix the sugar and ensure the peels are submerged in the cognac.

Infusion

3

Add Flavor Enhancers

Split the vanilla bean lengthwise and scrape the seeds into the jar with the orange mixture. Add the whole vanilla bean, cloves, and nutmeg to the mixture.

4

Seal and Store

Seal the jar tightly and store it in a cool, dark place for at least 4 weeks. Shake it gently every few days to help dissolve the sugar and mix the flavors.

Finalization

5

Strain the Mixture

After the infusion period, strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a clean bottle, discarding the solids.

6

Bottle the Liqueur

Pour the filtered Grand Marnier into a clean, dry bottle. Seal it tightly and label it with the date.

7

Enjoy

Store the Grand Marnier in a cool place and enjoy it as a digestif, in cocktails, or as a dessert sauce.
