Step 1

Blot all of the zest in paper towel to remove any excess of natural oil. Put peel into a 4 cup screw top jar. Add 2 cups of vodka and close jar tight! Store in a cook, dark place for 2 days or until vodka has absorbed the flavor and color of the zest. Strain the peel from the vodka. Place vodka back in jar and add the sugar; shake vigourously until the sugar dissolves. Add remaning cup of vodka and stir until liquid becomes clear. Close jar; store in a cool, dark place at least one week to age.
