How to Make Non Alcoholic Triple Sec and Non Alcoholic Margarita Recipe

Here is how to make a delicious non alcoholic virgin triple sec for a virgin margarita that actually tastes like the real thing...

Sometimes you just want a delicious and refreshing margarita without the buzz. With my homemade non alcoholic triple sec, this can actually become a reality! For the best flavor, I’m using a blend of mandarin orange and bitter orange to create a nuanced grown up non alcoholic triple sec that ticks all the boxes and then some.

Alcohol Free Orange Extract:
1.5 oz food grade vegetable glycerin
.5 oz distilled water
1 heaping teaspoon of dried bitter orange peel
5 drops orange blossom water (optional)

Combine water and glycerin until homogenous, then add the dried orange peel and orange blossom water. Stir to combine and let it sit for 10-40 days- agitating often.

Mandarin Oleo Sacchrum:
7 mandarin oranges
White sugar

Begin by washing the outside of the mandarins with just boiled water to remove any wax and scrub with a clean kitchen towel.

Remove mandarin peels and cut into strips.
Remove the bitter white pith with a pairing knife.
Add the peels to a zip top bag and measure the weight on a scale.
Add the same weight of white sugar to the bag and massage the sugar into the peels. Let sit overnight.
Extract the oleo sacchrum by squeezing the peels over a mesh sieve.

Clarified Mandarin Juice:
7 mandarin oranges
5 drops pectinex

Juice all oranges to yield a cup of juice
Add 5 drops of pectinex and let stand for 20 minutes or overnight in the fridge.
Slowly pour juice through a coffee filter to separate from pectin solids.

Non Alcoholic Triple Sec:
6 oz clarified mandarin juice
2 oz mandarin oleo sacchrum
1 oz non alcoholic orange bitters
3 drops orange blossom water
1/8th tsp citric acid
1.5 oz simple syrup.

This should keep in the fridge for several weeks.
