Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 oranges
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup dry white wine, or water
1 1/2 teaspoons anise seeds, (optional)
1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lime juice
1/2 teaspoon grated lime zest

Steps:

  • Using a sharp paring knife, peel oranges following the curve of the fruit, and remove as much bitter white pith as possible. Slice oranges into 1/2-inch-thick rounds; place in a large bowl.
  • In a medium saucepan, bring 1 cup water, sugar, wine, and anise seeds, if using, to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium, and cook until liquid reduces to 1/2 cup, about 25 minutes.
  • Strain the syrup; stir in lime juice and zest. Pour over oranges.
  • Cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until chilled, at least 30 minutes.

I love the idea of using lime syrup instead of sugar syrup. It sounds like it would give the orange slices a really unique flavor.

I'm not sure what went wrong with my batch of orange slices in lime syrup, but they turned out really bland. I followed the recipe exactly, but the flavor just wasn't there.

This recipe was a disaster! The orange slices were bitter and the syrup was way too sweet. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

The orange slices were a bit too tart for my taste, but the syrup was delicious. I would definitely make this again, but I would use less lime juice in the syrup.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover oranges. I had a few oranges that were starting to go bad, and this was the perfect way to use them up.

I'm not usually a fan of orange slices, but these were delicious! The lime syrup really brought out the flavor of the oranges.

This was a really fun and easy recipe to make. I loved the combination of orange and lime flavors. The syrup was just the right consistency, and the orange slices were perfectly cooked.
