I'm a Star Trek fan, but I wouldn't touch that concoction lol!Vodka Dosing Dip for the Reefer?
Saurian Brandy
Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup grated Orange rind
- 1 pint 100 proof Vodka
- 1 cup Sugar
- 2/3 cup grade "A" Maple syrup
Mixing instructions:
Put orange rind in a half-pint jar with 1/4 cup vodka. Seal it and shake occasionally. Let it steep overnight. -- Pour sugar and 1 2/3 cups vodka into a 28 ounce bottle. Seal it and shake until all the sugar is dissolved, then add the maple syrup. -- Filter the orange extract through a fine handkerchief or coffee filter until it becomes clear. -- Add a tablespoon of the final extract to the vodka syrup mixture and mix well. If your orange peels are much more or less aromatic than average, adjust the quantity so that you have enough to hide the maple flavor, without having enough to make the liqueur bitter or recognizably orange flavored.
Creator/contributor's comments:
The recipe comes from the 'Official Star Trek Cooking Manual' (Bantam Books 1978) by Mary Ann Piccard, but not even Paramount will acknowledge it anymore.

EDIT: I do wonder how may people here know that "Saurian Brandy" is a fictional drink ;-) Maybe I should change that lol!
