Mandarin Liqueur: The Recipe to Make it at Home

Thoroughly wash a 1-litre glass jar in hot soapy water and dry with a clean tea towel. Using a vegetable peeler, strip off as much clean, unblemished mandarin peel as you can and use a paring knife to slice off any pith (the white stuff) from the underside of the peel. Now, the mandarins on our tree were quite firm-skinned – not the kind that you can easily peel without making a mess – but if you have the kind with loose skin which falls off almost as you touch it, just remove as much pith as possible and you’re good to go. Susan, I am now making a mandarin liqueur (what an aroma!!) but limoncello has been in my mind for a long time now. Still got many bottles of liquor to make. Have you posted about limoncello? There are many ways to make liqueurs but this time I made the mandarin liqueur using the whole fruit. The formula to make an Orange or other Citrus liqueur, such as lemons, bergamot, mandarin, bitter oranges, pomelo, etc is very simple. You take the peel or zest and steep it in alcohol to extract the essence of the fruit. Then you make a simple syrup with sugar and combine both together. Separately, dissolve 3 cups of sugar in a litre of boiling water to prepare a syrup. Keep the heat low during cooking and as soon as the sugar is completely melted turn off the stove and let it cool well.My in-laws who live there have both orange and olive groves. The production is just for their personal use and whatever extra they have they give around to friends and relatives. Each time they visit us they bring along some of their produce. When squeezing the oranges this great idea came up. To combine both oranges and tsikoudia and make an orange liqueur. The ones I have from Cyprus are produced in wineries whereas the ones from Crete are distilled in home distilleries. I’ve had them in my cupboards for months now not knowing what to do with them as we do not drink a lot in my family except occasionally my husband drinks some wine and ouzo.

Bring to a boil again, lower heat and boil for 5 more minutes. Leave it on the ceramic stove until it cools. Boil again for a few more times until the peels are soft. Pour the sugar into a bowl (or better yet, a measuring jug so it’s easier to pour into the jar later) followed by the mandarin segments. Stir with a wooden spoon, crushing the mandarin pieces to release their juice, and keep stirring until the sugar has dissolved into the mandarin juice and is no longer gritty when you do a little taste test. Add the citric acid to the bowl and stir again. This is how you make liqueurs that are fruit flavored or herbal. It’s also how you make candy infusions. After making the Coffee Liqueur using leftover syrup from a Cherry spoon sweet, I’ve been using leftover fruit preserve syrups a lotwhen making liqueurs and the flavour is even better!The method for making a lot of homemade liquors involves some cooking. You’re essentially making a syrup like simple syrup, only with flavorings. I remembered seeing this procedure last year on television and searched my cooking notebooks to see if I had recorded it.I had listed the ingredients but the notes on the procedure were a bit vague so I decided to see more recipes on the internet and get everything clear before proceeding. This mandarin vodka can be kept on its own and used in mixed drinks or as a homemade citrus extract for desserts and recipes. Mix it up with equal portions of simple sugar syrup and you have a mandarin version of Limoncello. For my liqueur I used the peel of four oranges which I put them in a coffee/tea jar, which had a filter on the top, filled it with tsikoudia and pressed the filter down so that the peels would submerge into the liquor. The alcohol to be use must be a neutral spirit. You can read more details in my recipe for Cherry Pit Liqueur.

Any other citrus can be used. Smaller ones like mandarins or kumquats are added whole in the liquor. At this point if you do not want to make the candied mandarin peels, you extract the juice and just cook the syrup for ten minutes. You then mix the syrup with the leftover alcohol). Could I Leave You from the Sondheim musical Follies, performed here by Dee Hoty for My Favourite Broadway: The Leading Ladies in 1998, a highly comforting yet exhilarating concert that I revisit frequently. This is such a good song in anyone’s hands, but Hoty has precisely the steel and elegance and control that makes it really shine.

Then add the alcohol and the syrup and pour the liqueur into the bottles. If you want a very clear liqueur, filter it once. One of the top methods for making liqueurs is to infuse vodka, gin or other neutral spirits. You can put herbs, fruit, fruit peels and rinds, and even candy into bottles and leave them to absorb the flavor over time. The color of the liqueur depends on what rum you use. I prefer dark rum, but you can use what you have at hand.
