Homemade Grand Marnier

Ingredients

4 cups vodka

4 Oranges, juice and zest

3 cups White sugar

1 tablespoon Coriander seed

3 ounces Imitation brandy flavor

Preparation

With a vegetable peeler, remove the peel of the orange taking care to not get too much of the bitter white pith.

Squeeze the oranges and strain the juice well. In a mixing jar place the orange juice, zest, vodka and the coriander seed. Cover and leave to infuse for two weeks.

Drain through a coarse sieve and return to the mixing jar. Discard the residue.

Add the brandy flavor and the sugar. Shake vigorously until the sugar is dissolved. Leave to clear. This liqueur is very slow to clear, so be patient. When clear, two weeks or more, decant.
