Grand Marnier Ingredients

Method

Grand Marnier Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Orange Infusion

    In a medium saucepan, combine the water and sugar. Heat over medium heat until the sugar dissolves completely. Remove from heat and let it cool.

  2. 2

    Infuse the Cognac

    Once the syrup is cooled, add the orange peels and cognac to the saucepan. Stir gently to combine.

  3. 3

    Let it Sit

    Cover the saucepan and let the mixture sit at room temperature for at least 2 weeks. This allows the flavors to meld together.

  4. 4

    Strain and Bottle

    After 2 weeks, strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the orange peels. Transfer the infused Grand Marnier to a clean bottle.

  5. 5

    Enjoy

    Your homemade Grand Marnier is ready to be enjoyed neat, on the rocks, or in your favorite cocktails!
