I would suggest completely cooling the liquid before adding the vodka. You don't want to evaporate the alcohol by adding to the hot liquid.
you would only loose 10 ml max
@@bigredinfinity3126 I would say even less. But yes, a very small amount. Intentionally boiling alcohol out of water when distilling is a very time consuming process.
amazing i use to want to make an all natural fast food resteraunt and youv made it with liquer niceee keep it up love the videos
Wow, it's been 7 years and it's still in progress? 😂

I made this, it was a big hit. I don't even drink 😃 gave it to my friends
Thank you sooooo much
Awesome update
Thanks appreciate
🙏
I have used your recipe and everyone loves it, but I use Gold Miner brand Vodka (sugar can based) and it is delicious in a Margarita with the Gold Miner brand Agave Rum!
Hi! I love your channel, looking forward to watching more of your videos. Quick question: I just made my own Grand Marnier and Limoncello, and the biggest tip I found online was that I should avoid the pith when using my orange/lemon peels. Is the potato peeler an effective tool for that? I used a microplaner and it took FOREVER.
8 years later, and no reply. Unfortunate. I hope he's still alive at least.
do you have to add orange flower water?
Good Video
can i use orange bitters instead of the flower water?
When will we see the video of the finished product?
If the heat of the simple syrup helps to extract flavor from the orange peel, wouldn't it make sense to wait for it to seep a bit before adding the vodka? Otherwise, the vodka cools the mixture down too quickly.
Real recipe: pour light rum on the zest let sit covered at room temp for 7 or 10 days strain out peels make a simple syrup of equal parts water and sugar. Add simple syrup to the alcohol until it's as sweet as you like. If you're drinking this with dessert or as an cordial I would use less syrup if using as a mixer for margaritas I'd use a bit more.... Bonus 7 oz high quality hot chocolate 1 oz homemade orange liqour
How much zest, how much light rum and how much simple syrup would you recommend?
Tyler Hughes I need to attend your mixology class. You seem to have a lot of knowledge to pass on.
So how did it turn out? I'm missing the results...
is their any way to speed the process would distilling make it faster
Very nice But!! Idint understand you the last gradient in bottle!! What is that???
Is it OK if I don't add orange flower water?
Sometime i had rotten orange garnish that's can made it to be a liquor??
I have a question how hot is the water when you add it. I'm curious because it seemed like it may be hot enough to cook away some of the alcohol. That plus all the water would make it quite weak unless some fermentation happened and made up for it. I'm not sure but would like to know before I try this.
Great question, and You are correct about cooking off the vodka. The alcohol is important because it dissolves and carries most of the essential citrus oils which hold the orange flavor. This recipe can be improved.
Simple syrup boils hotter than boiling water -hot enough to fry in- above 300°F, and certainly _well above 173°_ ( the evaporation point of Ethanol ). I recommend several changes to this recipe, first of which is to cool & mix the room temperature syrup to cold vodka. 🌹
I think 40-50 c
can you make it non alcoholic?
Seeing as you've already watered down the vodka at least 50/50 already with all the water and jiuce i'd suggest you let the liquid cool to lower than 79 Celsius, unless you like vaporising the alcohol you just paid for...
I was thinking the same thing,
not an issue, call it 50 celcius after added the vodka. Hell, call it 79 celcius with the vodka with 50% dilution, giving approx 20% abv of the mix - boiling point of the ethanol-water mix gonna be in the 90's. Gonna be losing hardly anything in the time it takes to get it covered.
@@gmonkman No mate that's not how science works.
The boiling point of ethanol is 79c, regardless of how much water is in it. Plus, the sugar content of those oranges would allow the mix to raise well above 100c - ever seen how hot candy gets when you make it?
@@mattdeanmusic "not how science works", wtf are you talking about?
What we are talking about is the boiling point of "binary mixtures of volatile liquids" (that is quoted so you can google it). Ethanol does not all boil off followed by the water.
What infact happens is the system has a single boiling point determined entirely by the pressure and the mole fractions of ethanol and water. However, for any given mole fraction, there is a difference in the vapor pressure between the ethanol and water components, with the vapor pressure of ethanol being greater than water, hence the vapor contains more ethanol than water. This is how distillation works.
But, unfortunately the ethanol-water system is non-ideal, and eventually the distillate with be an azeotrope, with the composition of the distillate resulting in the vapor pressure of ethanol and water being equal, making further seperation of the ethanol from the water using standard distillation impossible.
Any undergrad physical chemistry text book covers this.
I was wondering if you have to remove the pith? It seems like he did not, so I am really amazed.
Use a strainer or cheese cloth
have you ever mixed the home made tripple sec with the tequilla and home squessed lemons and lime
Wasiq Mohammad that’s very good - best flavor
Love that action shot of the burner being off
Burner was on
If I buy that huge jug can I double the recipe and it fit all in that one jug?
do u need vodka to have alcohol in it
where is part 2 testing final product
@pouryourpoison
Can you make this with any fruit?
I guess so, but then it wouldn't be Triple Sec... which is defined as an " orange flavored liqueur".
If you added the orange skins, why not also the flesh to give more flavor??
the flesh adds some bitterness
You should wait before pouring vodka, as hot liquid will make alcohol to evaporate.
I'm wondering why you would need to add orange flower water for flavor. Surely all those oranges would provide all the flavor you need.
I thought same question
The orange flower water is not required if you are going for a straight, basic orange peel flavor to be used in "house" cocktail recipes calling for generic triple sec, however, citrus blossoms of any kind will add a delightful aroma and complexity to your finished product. I cook the whole flowers briefly in the syrup, to liberate the essential oils, then strain them out and let them steep in vodka for a few days, to extract that last bit of perfume. 🌹
im not crazy about orange flavors; what other fruit could I use?
What ever your hands could reach... I've made it with orange, lemon, strawberry, blueberry, coffee bean
Did he say refrigerator ? I thought you were supposed to store in cool dry place 🤔
Don't know where to start but it's a shame you can't vote to have inaccurate videos removed from CZcams!
I'm not sure what you made, but it's not a tripple sec and not even close. It's much closer to an Arancello (Limoncello cousin) than anything else.
Tripple sec is made from DRIED orange peals that are a combination of sweet, tart and bitter (triple) and it dryer or with less sugar (sec) then this. You would not start with a vodka either but something much higher in ABV. The higher ethanol content the more the extraction of the oils from the zest.
NEVER, EVER add alcohol to anything warm/hot as the ethanol will evaporate right out on you. Ethanol evaporates at room temperature which is why high end bars don't use pour spouts on their good spirits but leave them sealed!
I'd suggest anyone watching this to go watch a video of how REAL Grand Marnier (cognac based) or Cointreau (neutral spirit) is made or even any other Curaçao based spirit is made.
There are much better DIY versions closer to Grand Marnier or Cointreau on CZcams that are much better and much closer to the real thing. This is just a marinated orange zest orange liquor that won't be a replacement for triple sec in any recipe/cocktail.
This recipe uses 2 cups water and 4 cups sugar with about 2 cups of OJ for 8 cups of ZERO proof mixed with 750 ML of 80 proof vodka. So 8 cups is 1892.71 ML or zero proof plus 750 ML of 80 proof for 22.7 proof or 11.35% ABV.
Grand Marnier & Cointreau are both 40% or 80 proof (USA) vs this week 11% mixture of orange liquid that is like a medium strong wine at best.
Don't both trying to use this in a "Cadillac Margarita" or anything else! Go buy a cheap bottle of Tripple Sec or learn to make a good orange liquor. :)
That is a long post which I appreciated, but loss of ethanol due to evaporation will be minimal. Try this: Dilute vodka with water to 11.35%, heat to 40 celcius. Pour into wine glass. Measure weight loss of solution over a 10 minutes, It will be minimal. Bet it isn't even 1gram per minute decrease per 100ml.
Oh, all liquids at room temperature will evaporate - its simply a result of the distribution of energy amoung the molecules at the gas-liquid interface.
Hey, just a comment.... if you add vodka to hot liquids of any kind the alcohol will evaporate out of the mixture as it's very volatile.
No it isn't.
Oh yeah, I used Gold Miner Vodka, it's a sugar cane based vodka and it's fabulous with this recipe. :)
sounds like light rum. I wish vodka was better defined term :)
I don't think anyone has said it but.... you need Sour orange not regular orange.
Does methanol form while making liqueur at home. Is this process safe?
+saravanan dilip Only when you are distilling alcohol from your mash, the first 1-2 dl or less is usually methanol (depends how much mash you have).
8 oranges 2 cups of water to how much cane surgar?
he said 4 cups. listen
fletcher fuck off troll
@@lnixon236 not my fault you didnt listen
I would like try all the liqueur recipes. But am very skeptical after hearing about methanol poisoning in home made booz. Will adding the orange peels cause any fermentation and formation of methanol. Also is it safe to make mead or cider at home
There should not be any fermentation involved in these home-made liqueur recipes. All the fermentation is done at a federally regulated distillery where the vodka comes from, and where any methanol is removed before bottling.
Fermentation requires relatively low acid, alcohol and sugar concentrations, such as are found in low-acid fruit juices and grain broth. Keep your orange juice refrigerated or mixed with vodka, to minimum 20% alcohol, or use frozen concentrate.
The Methanol in moonshine comes from the fermentation of barley, rye and corn brans, and is customarily poured off in the early stage of distillation by reputable shiners.

.
Methanol poisoning isn't a concern at all.
Is that a metal whisk cliff is using on a teflon pan? wow! mom told me that's a big no-no.
Did I miss the recipe🙁?
two shots of vodka
Am I supposed to store in cool dark place or in fridge. He said in the fridge at the end and Now I'm confused.
Very low volume man...
Vodka in a hot solution?? NO!!
Super cool, but stop wiping your hands on jeans :)))
I'm GONNA MAKE THIS :)
Can you use gin instead of vodka?
The alcohol must be tasteless as possible thats why vodka is used manely in these types of "home-made" alcohol drinks but you can use less tasty gin or light rum if you don't want to use vodka
@@kirilbulgariev can i use light gin? Or white rum?
@@princessfloveecastillo well ofcourse. If you like the taste of white gin or white rum over vodka, then go for it. This isn't rocket science here - just give it a go.
This is more expensive than just buying dukuyper triple Sec. It's just over 5 dollars for a liter in Ohio
It can't be worse than Dekuyper, though :D
Guess some viewers may not be in Ohio, cheapest triple-sec alike in the UK will set you back 25 dollars a litre. That really is the cheapest as well.
yeah... hey... you never "got back to see the progress". oops.
I have made it and used it. It is outstanding. We use 1.5 oz Gold Miner Agave rum, 2 oz of Stonewall Kitchen Margarita mix (all natural yum), and 1 oz of this triple sec. You just made the best tasting margarita ever...
Are you lot being paid to promote Gold Miner?
Inspirational, butt...........the process is all wrong from dumping the vodka into boiling juice, to using fresh peels instead of dried. Plus, don't use grocery store navel oranges!!!
May I politely request you to enunciate your words more clearly. I found it difficult to make out rather a lot of what you said - I am a native English speaker,
I had to read the comments here to understand it was "orange flower water" he added toward the end.
1. You did not show how deep skin should be peeled. Pith makes it bitter.
2. Tell the whole story from start to finish. Nobody is going to sit and wait for your ending.
3. Work to a script step by step. Always assume your audience knows nothing. You may know the process, we do not.
