Re: All you need is the zest of 10 oranges,
May 24, 2019, 10:47 PM
|
|
a handle of brandy and a lot of patience. Remove the zest from 10 oranges, being careful not to get any pith. I use a vegetable peeler and scrape off any pith with a paring knife. Your TNet steak knives will serve admirably. Place the orange zest into a gallon glass jar. Pour the brandy over it and cover with a lid.
Place in a cool, dark place and shake a couple times a week. Let it steep for four weeks. After four weeks, strain the liquor through a fine mesh strainer. Add simple syrup to taste. The recipe I used called for 2 cups sugar to one cup water.
Filter with a paper coffee filter and there you go. Homemade Grand Marnier. 1.75 liters for about $30.

Blanton, Buffalo, angels envy, eagle lair or 1792. Guess I’ll have one of each.!
Buffalo can’t be beat for the money but hard to find in NC.

<$15 Jim Beam Repeal Batch
$16-20 Evan Williams Bottled in Bond
$24-28 Larceny
$28-30 1792
$40-45 Four Roses Single Barrel
$50-60 Old Forrester Prohibition
$80-90 Angel’s Envy Rye - Rum Aged
All these are relatively easy to find and you shouldn’t need to pay secondary prices.

If I’m drinking neat or on the rocks: Weller or Elijah Craig. Especially with a good cigar. If I’m drinking an everyday drink, on the lake or tailgating; then it’s Wild Turkey Honey and Coke.

Buffalo Trace or 1792, especially for the price point vs taste. Kicked my Maker's habit back when they were going to water it down. Also, even though it's not a bourbon, Tin Cup is a nice mid-range whiskey with a rye kick.
