Step 1:
How to make a simple tangerine compote? Prepare the necessary ingredients for this. Choose tangerines bright, ripe, with an easy-to-clean peel. This can be determined by feeling them a little. To the touch, the peel, as it were, does not fit the tangerines. Be sure to taste tangerines to understand how much sugar to add to the compote.
Step 2:
Peel the tangerines. Separate all the slices from each other and remove the white skins. If you leave them, then the finished compote may taste a little bitter.
Step 3:
Put the peeled tangerines in a saucepan. Next, pour sugar and a pinch of citric acid into the pan. Adjust the amount of sugar to your liking.
Step 4:
Fill the tangerines with water and put the pan on the fire and bring to a boil. Then make the fire lower and boil the drink for 15 minutes.
Step 5:
During cooking, the tangerine slices will burst and all the juice will go into the drink. Remove the finished compote from the heat. Cover the pan with a lid and leave the compote to infuse for another 15-30 minutes.
Step 6:
Delicious, fragrant and beautiful compote is ready! It is not necessary to filter it. Pour the compote into glasses with tangerine slices and help yourself. Bon appetit!

To maintain immunity and lift the mood, we all buy tangerines. When you don't want to eat them anymore, recipes with tangerines come to the rescue. Including tangerine compote. Such a bright drink will be very useful on the eve of the New Year! If desired, you can add some spices to the compote when cooking. They will give the drink a new flavor shade!

For cooking, it is better to use filtered or bottled water that is neutral to taste. If you use tap water, keep in mind that it can give the dish an unpleasant characteristic taste.

Instead of sugar, you can use a sweetener that is not afraid of heat treatment.
