Orange liqueur

Bright as the sun, delicious and fragrant liqueur made of oranges. I share another recipe for homemade liqueur. This time from oranges. Another wonderful recipe in my collection. I give the proportions for 4 oranges. I made half a serving myself. It turned out to be one small bottle and half of the second. If you need more, then increase the proportions as follows: for every 100 ml of vodka, take 1 orange, 100 g of sugar and 100 ml of water. Oranges are better to take with a thin skin, bright orange in color and fragrant.
