Instructions

1. Steeping

  1. Scraping with a spoon or knife, remove the white part of the inner side of the mandarin orange peel. This prevents the liqueur from tasting bitter, and gives it a better color in the end.

2. Mixing

  1. Mix rum and mandarin orange peels in a clean jar. Place in a covered jar in the refrigerator for about five days.

3. Boiling

  1. Mix 1 cup of water, sugar, and a small piece of one of the rinds from the rum and boil over low heat until half of the water evaporates. Let the syrup cool.

4. Straining

  1. Strain the rum using a clean piece of cloth or fine mesh strainer and discard the rinds. Mix the syrup with the rum.

5. Serving

  1. Serve chilled

Notes

  • The preparation time does not include the 5 days for steeping.
