A spiced simple syrup adds warmth and flavour to this big-batch cocktail, with orange liqueur and clementine adding lightness.
Ingredients
1 cup granulated sugar
16 star anise
2 cinnamon sticks
2 long clementine peels
1 cup orange liqueur, such as Grand Marnier
1 cup lemon juice
Instructions
Combine sugar with 1 cup water, star anise, cinnamon sticks and clementine peels in a large saucepan and set over high. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally, until sugar dissolves and mixture turns syrupy, about 5 min. Remove from heat. Remove cinnamon sticks and peel. Refrigerate syrup until chilled. Fill a pitcher with syrup, star anise, orange liqueur and lemon juice. Pour into 8 ice-filled glasses.
