13704 Orange Digestif 10 mins, plus steeping time 10 mins 3 1/3 cups Tue Nov 18 04:58:00 -0800 2008 Tue Nov 18 03:29:29 -0800 2008 Easy CHOW http://www.chow.com/recipes/13704 Tue, 18 Nov 2008 11:29:29 GMT Like orange flower blossoms steeped in alcohol Like orange flower blossoms steeped in alcohol. If you took orange flowers and let them blossom in a bottle of alcohol, you’d have an idea of how floral, citrusy, and flavorful this digestif is.

What to buy: We chose Everclear 151 grain alcohol to use in our digestifs; it picks up the flavoring elements much faster than vodka.
