Orange Extract

🥘 Ingredients

• navel orange 1 large
• vodka 2 oz

1. 1

   Peel thin strips of zest from 1/2 of your navel orange .
2. 2

   Place zest into your 2-fl. oz glass bottle .
3. 3

   Add vodka , filling up to the neck of the bottle.
4. 4

   Every few days, tilt your bottle upside down to gently mix the liquid inside.
5. 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!)
