CARA CARA CITRUS LIQUEUR
This homemade liqueur is the perfect addition to many a beachy cocktail, served in frosty glasses and sipped on a porch at sunset. The margarita, the Cosmopolitan and the ever-dangerous Lemon Drop are all made more refreshing by its bright citrus flavor. Given all the types of citrus available, and the simplicity of this recipe, it's worth experimenting. The recipe here provides the essentials (ratios and techniques) with permission to make the infusion your own.

Steps:
- Sterilize 2 glass quart jars, with lids, by running them through the dishwasher or immersing them in boiling water for 10 minutes. With a vegetable peeler, remove the peel, not the pith, from 4 or 5 oranges. Place 1 1/2 ounces of peel into each quart jar.
- Juice all the oranges to yield about 1 1/2 cups of liquid. Press the juice through a fine strainer to remove pulp and seeds. You should have about 1 cup.
- In a small saucepan, bring the sugar and water to a boil. Add the juice to the sugar syrup in a steady stream, stirring continually. Bring the flavored syrup back to a boil, then pour half into each jar.
- Allow the mixture to cool completely, then pour 2 cups of vodka into each jar. Shake the jars well, then tuck them into the back corner of a closet. After one month, strain the liquid. Pour the citrus liqueur into decorative bottles with caps or corks. It will be ready to drink, but will become even more flavorful after another month.

Author Max Rappaport
- Infuse Extra-Virgin Olive Oil. Infused olive oil is so simple to make and so rewarding. Just combine Cara Cara orange peels (don't toss 'em!) and extra-virgin olive oil in a saucepan and place over medium heat for 10 minutes.
- Create Your Own Homemade Orange Extract. Imagine baking Carolina Gelen’s Orange-Cardamom Olive Oil Cake with fresh California Cara Caras and a splash of homemade orange extract (preview: it’s an absolute game-changer).
- Make a Batch of Oleo Saccharum. Combine leftover orange peels and sugar to make oleo saccharum—a syrup made of citrus peels and sugar that’s perfect for mixing into cocktails, whisking into fresh salad vinaigrettes, spooning over ice cream, and more.
- Preserve Them in Salt. Preserved lemons get all the love, but most citrus can be packed in salt and cured—and California Cara Cara oranges are no exception.
- Candy The Orange Peels (Please Also Dip Them in Dark Chocolate) One of my most vivid food memories as a kid is eating candied orange peels by the handful in Paris, enamored with how much better they were than the orange-flavored chocolate I was used to.
- Whip Up a Homemade Cleaning Solution. Want to enjoy that fresh, citrus-y scent throughout the whole house? This homemade cleaner is just the thing, and also happens to be kid-safe.
- Make a Refreshing Body Scrub. Okay, it’s spa time: Make an aromatic body scrub with grated orange peel, sugar, and coconut oil all mixed together. You can also add a dash of homemade orange extract or orange essential oil.
