1
Prepare the Orange Peels
Wash the oranges thoroughly and use a vegetable peeler to remove the outer peel, avoiding the bitter white pith. Cut the peels into strips and measure out 2 cups.
2
Create Sugar Syrup
In a saucepan, combine 1 cup of sugar and 1 cup of water. Heat over medium heat until the sugar is fully dissolved. Remove from heat and let it cool.

3
Combine Ingredients
In a large glass jar, combine the orange peels, cognac, cooled sugar syrup, vanilla bean (split lengthwise), cloves, and cinnamon stick.
4
Infuse the Mixture
Seal the jar tightly and let it sit in a cool, dark place for at least 2 weeks. Shake the jar gently every few days to mix the ingredients.

5
Strain the Mixture
After 2 weeks of infusing, strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a clean bottle, discarding the solids.
6
Bottle the Grand Marnier
Seal the bottle tightly and store it in a cool, dark place. The Grand Marnier can be enjoyed immediately, but it improves with age.
