Honey-Orange Syrup

By MJH

This glistening, citrus-infused syrup is like a beam of sunshine in the morning. Absolutely amazing over cornmeal pancakes or a bowl of fresh fruit.
Yields: 1 cup syrup

Ingredients

• 1 cup organic honey
• Zest of one orange
• Juice of one orange
• (optional: 1 Tablespoon Grand Marnier)

Preparation

Step 1

Wash an orange and zest completely.
Juice the orange.

In a small pot, whisk together honey and the freshly squeezed orange juice over medium heat.
Continue stirring until mixture comes to a boil and the orange juice is completely incorporated.

Remove from heat and stir in orange zest.

Allow to cool slightly before serving.
Sauce will thicken as it cools.
Transfer to a jug for serving or a glass jar for storing.
