FRUIT SALAD WITH ORANGE LIQUEUR
I tossed this together at the last second for a fruit salad and it turned out wonderful. I did not have time to chill the salad, but it was fine at room temp. Use cold fruit so the salad does not have to be chilled before serving or bananas and apples may turn brown.

ORANGE-VANILLA LIQUEUR
Doesn't exactly taste like creamsicles, but similar--the vanilla does soften the bite of the orange somewhat in that direction. To drink in liqueur glasses or pour over ice cream, angelfood cake, etc. Makes a delightful gift. Be sure to use vanilla extract, not imitation vanilla flavoring; the same goes for the orange extract. Times listed do not include 2 weeks for the liqueur to sit and infuse.

Tips:
- Choose ripe oranges for the best flavor.
- Use a sharp knife to zest the oranges. A dull knife will tear or bruise the fruit.
- Zest the oranges before juicing them. This will help release the essential oils and give the liqueur a more robust flavor.
- Use a cheesecloth-lined funnel to strain the liqueur. This will remove any pulp or seeds.
- Store the liqueur in a cool, dark place for at least two weeks before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and mature.
Conclusion:
Orange liqueur is a delicious and versatile spirit perfect for cocktails, desserts, and cooking. With a few simple ingredients and a little patience, you can easily make your own orange liqueur at home. So next time you're looking for a unique and flavorful spirit, give this recipe a try!
