I juiced Orangegold oranges for this recipe. It's surprisingly fruity despite the small liqueur quantities. Beautifully balanced and very tasty.

I used a cheap orange juice and instantly regretted it, requires a good one for sure!

This does, as advertised, taste faintly almond-ish. Mostly it tastes quite sweet. Oranges vary widely; if you have standard navel or cara cara oranges, a splash of lemon juice might help bring the whole thing to life. Even without it, it's a tasty cocktail.
