Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups water
1 cup sugar
3 whole star anise*
2 teaspoons orange flower water**
6 large oranges
Fresh mint sprigs
*A brown star-shaped seed pod found at Asian markets and specialty food stores; nice as a garnish, but it should not be eaten.
**A flavoring extract available at liquor stores and in the liquor or specialty foods section of some supermarkets.

Steps:

  • Combine first 3 ingredients in medium saucepan. Stir over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Simmer until liquid is reduced to generous 1 cup, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in orange flower water. Cover; chill until cold. Discard anise. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead.)
  • Using small knife, cut off peel and white pith from oranges. Slice oranges crosswise into 1/3-inch-thick rounds. Set in bowls. Spoon syrup over. Top with mint.

I didn't have any orange blossom water, so I used rose water instead. It turned out great!
