The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

ingredients
4 large seedless Valencia oranges
4 tablespoons brown sugar
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon mace
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup flour
1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1 cup oil for sauteing
1 raw egg
1/2 cup milk (scant)
Garnish
4 tablespoons mustard
4 tablespoons brown sugar
directions
Carefully peel the oranges and separate the sections. Sprinkle on mixed sugar, nutmeg, mace, and cinnamon.
Prepare a thick batter by uniting the flour, baking powder, salt, and brown sugar. Blend 2 Tbsp of oil, the egg, well beaten, and the milk. Thoroughly stir this liquid into the dry mixture. If the batter is thin, add a scant amount more of flour. If it is too thick to evenly coat the orange sections, then dilute with more milk. Chill batter for 1-1/2 hours.
Heat the remaining oil in a heavy skillet until hot, not smoking. Dip orange sections in batter to coat thoroughly. Drop into hot oil and fry until nicely browned.
Serve warm with mustard and brown sugar in separate spice dishes.

I had to make some adjustments since I was using the mini oranges, but they were not very juicy...too old I guess, so this really worked well to make them tastey
