I'm very glad I have a sweet tooth because this is a lot sweeter than you'd think. I'd halve the sugar, if not quarter it.

I don't think you want to cut the marmalade because it's gorgeous.

I absolutely agree. I'd maybe even consider cutting the syrup entirely. But never cut the orange marmalade, it's what makes the drink so incredible.

I had some fancy orange/ginger/Chardonnay marmalade in the fridge, so I gave it a whirl, four level(ish) barspoons. Outstanding :)

Jonathan Stephans, you are deffo correct on the Marmalade, we stopped at 6 teaspoons of Bonne Maman marmalade and it took forever to dissolve
2 per drink sounds right

Lovely recipe. Thankyou. I definitely didn't need the extra sugar. Even without it was sweet.

Finally got it right (too much marmalade first couple of times). Fantastic with 2 level teaspoons of marmalade (IMO). New favourite

Loved it and followed Gordon's suggestion to use chambord. Wish we could post pics

This is fantastic. I love this cocktail.
I dont think it even needs the sugar syrup unless you have a sweet tooth. I do, so I experimented and swapped it with 15ml of Chambord. Wow!

This is superb.
Doesn't feel strong - it's fresh and zingy.
I've bought 3x 40g jars of marmalade for £1, so I'll be enjoying a few of these.
