Had a great crop of mandarins this year.
Bulk have gone into the freezer for use throughout the year (including cooking - muffins yum!) but here is my experiment:
Peeled 12 mandarins and separated into segments. Those segments I then broke into half to expose the inner flesh.
Into 1 litre of 95% neutral went all those segments and left them for 5 days.
Turned into a glorious rich orange colour.
Strained and diluted to 40%.
Produced a great product either straight on ice or with a mixer. (The segments make a great dessert with icecream)
Very Happy and can do many more from the frozen supply!
