Prep time

Ingredients

  • Star Anise: 1 star anise
  • Prosecco: prosecco or champagne, to top up
  • Grand Marnier: 120ml Grand Marnier
  • Tequila: 4 tsp tequila
  • Blood Oranges: 4 blood oranges, quartered

Directions

  1. Soak the blood oranges (skin on) in 100ml Grand Marnier for 3 hrs.
  2. Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and tip the oranges, along with the soaking liquid, into a small roasting tin or ovenproof dish. Roast in the oven with the star anise for 30-40 mins or until the orange skins start to caramelise. Remove the skins and star anise, and puree the pulp in a food processor until smooth. Strain through a fine mesh sieve and chill until needed.
  3. Mix 25ml of the puree with 1 tsp each of tequila and Grand Marnier per cocktail, and top with Prosecco or champagne to serve.
