Tipsy Tangerines

Bizarre. The recipe really stood out for me last winter/spring. Used the peels in marmalade, fruit here. I don't understand the logic of it now, though. Putting up fruit so you can eat it later, i.e. the summer/fall, when everything else is in season?? Whatever. If you have a ton of fruit maybe it's worth a try.
