Honey Orangeade Recipes

Steps:

• Bring 2 cups water and sugar to a boil in a small saucepan; cook at a boil for 3 minutes, stirring to dissolve sugar, and creating a simple syrup.
• Combine simple syrup, 6 cups water, orange juice, and lemon juice in a large pitcher; refrigerate until cold.

Steps:

• Heat the cider in a large saucepan or Dutch oven over low heat. Insert the cloves in the orange, spaced a little apart. Add the orange to the cider, along with the ginger and cinnamon. Bring to a boil, then remove from the heat and add the brandy.

Steps:

• For the crispy chickpeas: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Pat the chickpeas dry with paper towels. Transfer to a bowl. Add the oil, cumin, garlic powder, salt, pepper, cayenne and paprika. Spread the chickpeas in a single layer in a rimmed baking sheet. Bake, stirring once halfway through to promote even browning, until the chickpeas are browned and crispy, about 30 minutes.
• Make the vinaigrette: Whisk together the oil, vinegar, sugar, mustard, salt and pepper.
• Assemble the salads: Pour 2 tablespoons of the dressing into each of two 16-ounce mason jars. Top with the kale, plums, almonds and 1/4 cup crispy chickpeas (reserve the remaining chickpeas for snacking). Seal the lids. Shake the jars to combine just before serving.

Steps:

• Make 2 cups simple syrup, adding 1/4 cup dried lavender before heating. Let cool, then strain into an ice-filled pitcher. Stir in 2 cups each fresh orange juice and water, and strips of orange zest.
• Simple Syrup: To make 2 cups simple syrup, bring 1 1/2cups each sugar and water to a boil, stirring until dissolved. Let cool.
