Place the oranges, lemon, cloves and vodka in a jar (vodka should cover the fruit) and steep 10 days. Strain and filter. Add sugar syrup. Mature 3-4 weeks. Yield: 4 cups. Sugar Syrup: To make one cup of sugar syrup: Bring to boil together, let stand a minute or two before adding to anything else. It will yield a little more than one cup, but most recipes rely on that inconsistency. Posted to Bakery-Shoppe Digest V1 #223 by Shelley Sparks on Sep 07, 1997
