1
Prepare Orange Peels
Wash and dry the oranges thoroughly. Use a vegetable peeler to remove the peels from the oranges, ensuring you get minimal white pith.
2
Prepare Simple Syrup
In a saucepan, combine the sugar and water. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar has completely dissolved. Allow to cool.

3
Combine Ingredients
In a large glass jar, combine the orange peels, cognac, and cooled simple syrup.
4
Add Flavor Enhancers
Split the vanilla bean lengthwise and scrape the seeds into the jar. Add the vanilla pod and the cinnamon stick.
5
Infuse
Seal the jar tightly and let the mixture sit in a cool, dark place for at least 2 weeks, shaking gently every few days.

6
Strain the Mixture
After 2 weeks, use a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth to strain the mixture into a clean bottle, discarding the solids.
7
Bottle the Grand Marnier
Transfer the strained liqueur into a decorative bottle. Seal tightly and store in the refrigerator for up to a year.
