Orange Coffee Liqueur Recipes

Steps:

• Fill a mixing glass or tumbler three-fourths full with ice cubes. Add remaining ingredients; stir until condensation forms on outside of glass. Strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Wash and dry the orange thoroughly.
• Using the sharp end of a paring knife, prick the skin of the orange all over.
• Insert the 44 coffee beans into the orange.
• Place the orange in a 1 1/2 quart canning jar.
• Add the sugar cubes and vodka.
• Close the lid making sure the cover is tight.
• Turn the jar upside down.
• Shake for at least a minute or two to help dissolve the sugar.
• Store in a cool, dry spot away from the heat and moisture of a kitchen.
• Each day, shake the jar until the sugar is totally dissolved.
• Allow to set for the entire 44 days until the vodka turns to a pale lovely orange color and has a coffee-orange fragrance.
• To use, remove the orange and coffee beans. Strain the liquid through a fine-meshed sieve into pretty clear bottles or a clear glass decanter.
• Serve in small liqueur glasses at room temperature or slightly chilled. You can also add it to white wine. Makes a nice accompaniment to winter fruit or fruit compotes or alone as an after-dinner drink.

Steps:

• Combine coffee liqueur and vodka in a coffee glass. Top off with coffee, float heavy cream on top, and serve hot.

Steps:

• 1. Pour half the brandy into a large wide mouthed glass jar with a lid. Stir in sugar. Puncture the oranges with a can opener or skewer and insert a coffee bean into each hole. Put the oranges into the jar; stir well. Pour in remaining brandy. Cover and store in a cool dark place for 60 days, stirring occasionally. Before serving, remove and discard the oranges. The liqueur may be kept at room temperature up to 3 months. Refrigerate it for longer storage. Makes about 6 cups.Season's Greetings
