Use a vegetable peeler and remove the peel from the oranges in long strips. Try not to include too much of the white pith which is bitter. Place the vodka in a container that has a lid and add the orange peels to the vodka. Let the orange peels steep in the vodka for 1 week in the sunlight, or two weeks at room temperature.
