Zubereitung von Grand Marnier Liqueur
- Zest three large oranges using a microplane or fine grater, ensuring only the brightly colored outer peel is collected. Avoid the bitter white pith.
- Juice the three oranges and strain the juice thoroughly to remove any pulp.
- In a clean, airtight jar (approximately 1-liter capacity), combine the orange zest, 700ml of high-quality vodka, and 2 teaspoons of coriander seeds.
- Securely seal the jar and store it in a cool, dark place for two weeks, gently shaking it every few days to encourage infusion.
- After two weeks, carefully strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth lined strainer into a clean bowl, discarding the solids.
- Return the infused vodka to the clean jar.
- Add 175ml of high-quality brandy or cognac, and 300g of granulated sugar.
- Seal the jar and vigorously shake until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- Allow the mixture to sit undisturbed for at least two weeks, or longer, until it becomes completely clear. The clearing process can take up to several weeks.
- Once clear, gently decant the liqueur into another clean jar or bottle, leaving any sediment behind.
- In a separate small bowl, mix 2-3 drops of orange food coloring with a small amount (about 1 tablespoon) of the clear liqueur until a dark orange hue is achieved.
- Gradually add the colored mixture to the main batch of liqueur, stirring gently to achieve a uniform, rich orange color.
- Your homemade Grand Marnier-style liqueur is ready! Store it in a cool, dark place and enjoy responsibly.
