INGREDIENT­S

4 ClemenGold mandarins 100 ml water

200 g brown sugar 6 sheets gelatin

750 ml Bubbly

METHOD

1. Place the juice and zest of 2 ClemenGold mandarins and the water in a saucepan set over medium-high heat.

2. Add the sugar and stir until dissolved, then allow the water to boil for a couple of minutes as the zest releases a slight orange colour and the liquid becomes syrupy.

3. In the meantime, fill a bowl with cold water and soak the gelatin sheets in the water to soften, then add the softened sheets to the ClemenGold syrup and mix to melt.

4. Slice 6 rings from the remaining 2 ClemenGold­s, about 5 mm each. Remove the peel and any pith. Divide the six rings among six coupe glasses or small dessert bowls.

5. Pour the bubbly into a jug and add the syrup-gelatine mixture. Stir until combined, then divide among the coupe glasses/ dessert bowls.

6. Cover with cling wrap, and place in the fridge overnight to set.
