Ingredients

I bottle of vodka (own brand supermarket stuff is fine)
300g caster sugar
I large orange
40 coffee beans

Handy Hint

Once your lovely clear liqueur is bottled, squeeze the life out of the orange and drink the cloudy liqueur straight away.

Method

1. Put the sugar and vodka in a wide necked preserving jar with a close fitting lid.
2. Give it a stir every time you walk past it over a day or so until the sugar has dissolved.
3. With a small sharp knife, make 40 cuts in the washed & dried orange. Push a whole coffee bean into each cut and then place it in the vodka.
4. Pick up the jar and swirl the contents at least once a day for 2 weeks. Over the next 2 weeks, swirl when you remember.
(It will be fabulous after 4 weeks, and will improve daily thereafter.)
5. Remove the orange carefully and leave to drain through a sieve, so that as much liqueur as possible is returned to the bulk before bottling. Be careful not to squeeze the orange at this stage as it will make your liqueur look very cloudy.
