Cook's Note: Mandarin oranges are available canned in a number of liquids from heavy syrup to juice. We recommend finding a canned product that does not contain any added sugars in the form of "heavy" or "light" syrup. But if you must use a syrup-based product, you may wish to decrease the granulated white sugar in this recipe.
