Blood Orange Fizzes Recipes

Steps:

• Add the milk, orange liqueur, vodka, sugar, vanilla, oranges and 1 cup of ice to a blender and puree until smooth and creamy. Pour into 2 glasses and garnish with a blood orange wedge.

Steps:

• Make simple syrup: Bring 1/2 cup each sugar and water to a simmer in a small saucepan, stirring, until dissolved; let cool completely. Combine 1/2 cup blood orange juice and 3 ounces each simple syrup and gin in a liquid measuring cup. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Divide the juice mixture among 8 flutes and top with chilled champagne or sparkling white wine.

Steps:

• Rub together the grated zest of 1/2 orange and 1/4 cup sugar with your fingertips; set aside.
• Bring 1 3/4 cups blood orange juice and 1/4 cup lemon juice to a boil in a saucepan. In a large bowl, whisk 3/4 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons cornstarch and a pinch of salt; whisk in 6 egg yolks and the zest mixture. Slowly whisk in the hot juice, then return to the pan. Cook over medium heat, whisking, until thick, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the heat; gradually whisk in 6 tablespoons cut-up butter.
• Strain the curd through a fine-mesh sieve and tint with red food coloring. Before using, chill until set, at least 4 hours.

Steps:

• Add ice to a rocks glass. Add the Campari and blood orange juice to a measuring cup with a spout and stir to combine. Pour over the ice.

Steps:

• Soak the blood oranges (skin on) in 100ml Grand Marnier for 3 hrs.
• 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 purée the pulp in a food processor until smooth. Strain through a fine mesh sieve and chill until needed.
• Mix 25ml of the purée with 1 tsp each of tequila and Grand Marnier per cocktail, and top with Prosecco or champagne to serve.
