A syrup forked into its own recipe per the archive's rule that accompanying components (glazes, marinades, rubs, sauces, etc.) are kept as standalone recipes. It also remains inline in ORANGE POPPY-SEED CAKE WITH BERRIES AND CREME FRAICHE, where it is originally used.

Ingredients

1 cup (240 ml) fresh orange juice
1/4 cup (60 ml) plus 2 tablespoons (30 ml) Grand Marnier or other orange-flavored liqueur
3 tablespoons (45 ml) sugar
1/4 cup (60 ml) julienne strips of orange zest (preferably removed with a zester)

Method

Make the syrup while the cake is baking: In a small saucepan combine the juice, the liqueur, the sugar, and the zest, heat the mixture over moderately high heat, stirring, until the sugar is dissolved, and remove the pan from the heat.
