WARNING: This marmalade did not "set up", or become thickened, like those I have made in the past. I have made some adjustments to the recipe.

Time 2h30m

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 medium navel oranges
1 lemon, juice of
2 to 3 c distilled water (2 works better)
2 to 3 c organic sugar (3 works better)
1 1/4 c champagne
5 dash(es) of bitters (angostura bitters)
SEE NOTES ABOVE REGARDING QUANTITIES AND SETTING UP OF JELLY

Steps:

  • 1. Wash the oranges and cut them in half. Squeeze out the juice and pulp and set aside.
  • 2. Take the peel of two of the oranges and mince roughly. Bring 1 1/2 cups of the water to a boil. Put minced orange peel in the water. Add 1 cup of the champagne and half the lemon juice and simmer, covered, for 1 hour. Let cool for 1/2 an hour.
  • 3. Stir in the orange juice with pulp, sugar, and remaining water, champagne, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat for about 30-45 minutes, until it begins to thicken, stirring occasionally.
  • 4. Remove from heat and stir in bitters, blending well. Pour into sealable jars and let cool. Process in water bath, OR just freeze or keep refrigerated.
  • 5. What to do if your jelly does not set: Empty the jars back into a clean, large mixing bowl. Stir 6 tablespoons instant pectin into 1 cup sugar until well-combined, then stir this mixture into the jelly. Let set 10 minutes. Spoon back into clean jars or freezer containers. Let set 30 minutes, then store in freezer.
