  6. 6
    If you do not have any liqueur, or don't wish to include any in this recipe, dissolve 1 tablespoons of sugar in 3 tablespoons of boiling water, along with three or four 1-inch pieces of orange zest (just the orange part of the peel, with as little of the white pith as you can manage), a teaspoon of crushed coriander seeds and a whole clove, and simmer very gently for about two minutes. Allow the syrup to cool a bit, then strain before using. ;o)
