Ingredients
- 8 Juicy Oranges
- 4 tablespoons Caster Sugar
Make it step by step
- Wash the oranges thoroughly, halve them and squeeze out all the juice. Put the juice in a container to one side for the moment.
- Remove as much pith as you can from the orange peel and put it into a saucepan with 2 pints of water and any pulp (not pips!).
- Bring to the boil and let it bubble for 20 minutes.
- Turn off the heat and leave it to cool.
- Strain the contents of the saucepan through a fine sieve, pouring the orange liquid into a heatproof jug. Add enough boiling water to the liquid to make it up to two pints.
- Mix in the reserved orange juice, stir in the sugar and when it's cool, put it in the fridge.
- Dilute to taste.
