Orange Extract¶

| 2 oz | 5-6 weeks |
Ingredients¶
1 large navel orange
2 oz vodka
Cookware¶
- 1 2-fl. oz glass bottle
Instructions¶
Step 1¶
Peel thin strips of zest from ½ of your navel orange.
Step 2¶
Place zest into your 2-fl. oz glass bottle.
Step 3¶
Add vodka, filling up to the neck of the bottle.
Step 4¶
Every few days, tilt your bottle upside down to gently mix the liquid inside.
Step 5¶
After 5-6 weeks, you have extract! (I think with citrus peels the acid (and alcohol bath), it’s probably safe to leave the peels inside the bottle like a vanilla bean for re-fill purposes. If you don’t feel comfortable doing this, take it out!)
