Orangecello, also known as Limoncello, is a classic Italian liqueur made with fresh oranges, sugar, and vodka. It's a versatile spirit that can be enjoyed on its own, used in cocktails, or added to desserts. This article provides three delicious recipes for Orangecello: a traditional recipe, a blood orange variation, and a creamy Orangecello cheesecake.

The traditional Orangecello recipe uses a simple combination of oranges, sugar, and vodka. The oranges are zested and the zest is infused into the vodka for several weeks. The sugar syrup is then added and the mixture is allowed to rest for an additional week. The result is a smooth, flavorful liqueur with a bright orange flavor.

The blood orange variation uses blood oranges instead of regular oranges. This gives the Orangecello a beautiful red color and a slightly tart flavor. The creamy Orangecello cheesecake is a delightful dessert that combines the flavors of Orangecello and cheesecake. The cheesecake is made with a graham cracker crust, a creamy Orangecello filling, and a whipped cream topping.

Whether you're looking for a classic Italian liqueur, a refreshing cocktail ingredient, or a delicious dessert, these Orangecello recipes have something for everyone.

Categories     beverage

Time 40m

Yield 6 cups

Number Of Ingredients 4

7 medium navel oranges, preferably organic
1 (750ml) bottle vodka
2 1/2 cups water
1 1/2 cups sugar

Steps:

  • Using a vegetable peeler, remove the peel from the oranges in long strips (reserve the oranges for another use). Using a small sharp knife, trim away the white pith from the orange peels; discard the pith. Put the orange peels in a 2-quart pitcher or large glass bowl. Pour the vodka over the peels and cover with plastic wrap. Steep the orange peels in the vodka for 4 days at room temperature.
  • In a medium saucepan, combine the water and sugar over medium heat. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has dissolved. Remove the pan from the heat and allow the syrup to cool, about 20 minutes. Pour the syrup over the vodka mixture. Cover and let stand at room temperature overnight. Strain the orangecello through a mesh strainer. Discard the peels. Transfer the orangecello to bottles. Seal the bottles and refrigerate until cold, at least 4 hours and up to 1 month.

Tips:

  • Select the right oranges: Use navel oranges for a sweeter, less bitter flavor, or a mix of navel and blood oranges for a more complex flavor profile.
  • Organic oranges are best: Since the zest is used in the recipe, choose organic oranges to avoid pesticides and chemicals.
  • Use a vegetable peeler: A vegetable peeler will remove just the zest, leaving behind the bitter white pith.
  • Infuse the vodka for at least 2 weeks: The longer you infuse the vodka, the more intense the orange flavor will be.
  • Use a fine-mesh strainer: When straining the orangecello, use a fine-mesh strainer to remove all of the solids.
  • Serve chilled: Orangecello is best served chilled, either straight or on the rocks.

Conclusion:

Caravella Orangecello is a delicious and versatile liqueur that can be enjoyed on its own, mixed with other drinks, or used in cooking. With its bright citrus flavor and hints of vanilla and cinnamon, it's a perfect addition to any home bar. So next time you have a party or gathering, impress your guests with this homemade Italian liqueur. Salute!
