Notes

Step 1: Prepare Blood Orange Tea

6 large blood oranges (8 if they are on the small side)

  1. Boil 2 litres of water and cool to 76c.
  2. While water is cooling, zest 6 blood oranges (or 8 if you are using the smaller ones)
  3. Once they have been zested, cut the oranges in half and place into a muslin bag.
  4. Place blood orange zest and halves in the 76c deg water. Steep for entire duration or boil (basically just leave it and forget about it!)
