- 80 g orange peel;
- 120 grams of sugar;

It is better to cut the zest with a fine grater until it reaches 80 g. Pour it into a bowl and cover it with sugar, then grind it with a wooden spoon or pestle until the sugar is absorbed into the zest.
Pour the candied zest into a jar, pour cognac into it, mix well, cork tightly and send to infuse in a dark, cool place for 2-3 months. You can stir once a month. After infusion, filter the drink well, mix again with a wooden spoon and pour into a bottle. It is recommended to drink ready-made liquor 3 months after bottling.
