This syrup is delicious when made properly, but the instructions are poorly written. It takes way more than 20 minutes to get this to the correct consistency. I had to simmer mine for an hour before it reduced down to a syrup. At 20 minutes, it was still just juice with some stuff in it. I used regular orange juice, as well as ground allspice. I started with whole allspice, but had trouble tasting the spice until I added about a tsp or two of ground spice. Final product yielded 1 cup.

I only had one cup of fresh squeezed mandarin juice, so modified other ingredients to fit. It's very nice, not too sweet. I'm going to use some on stir-fried rice this evening, as it tastes like the sauce that comes in packets.

Had a bunch of uneaten clementine, so squeezed what I could from them to make the syrup. Son devoured it on french toast. So many uses. Thank you!

Not very sweet, could use more sugar.
