- Place orange strips in small pan, cover with water, bring to boil, boil uncovered 10 minutes, drain; combine sugar and water in pan, stir over medium heat until sugar has dissolved; add orange strips to this mixture.
- Boil the syrup gently, uncovered, approximately 10 minutes or until orange strips are transparent and glazed; remove strips immediately from pan, place on lightly oiled plate.
- Return pan to heat, boil syrup uncovered further 5 minutes or until syrup turns pale golden brown; remove from heat immediately, quickly add extra water, stir for a few minutes to dissolve toffee.
- Return to heat and stir for a few minutes extra to dissolve any remaining toffee in bottom of pan; remove from heat, allow to cool a few minutes then stir in Grand Marnier and lemon juice; allow syrup to cool 5 minutes.
