The Head Gardener’s Vin D’Orange, our favourite summer tipple!

This is absolutely summer in a bottle!

Gorgeous citrus tones, a deep marmalade hue, and a feisty alcoholic kick make this Vin D’Orange our favourite hot-weather tipple!

Ned’s recipe makes approximately 1.3 litres. You will need a large, sealable, sterilised jar.

 

 

  • 20 Calamondin oranges, washed
  • ½ lemon
  • 200g sugar
  • 2 cinnamon sticks, bruised
  • 1 litre rose wine
  • 200ml eau-de-vie
  • 60ml rum
  • Halve the Calamondin oranges horizontally and place in the jar with the lemon, sugar, cinnamon, rose wine and eau-de-vie.
  • Close the jar and place in the fridge for six weeks, shaking regularly to ensure the sugar has dissolved.
  • Remove from the fridge, add the rum and stir.
  • Strain through a paper filter or muslin cloth into a sterilised bottle.
  • Seal the bottle and keep refrigerated.
