Sweet Orange Oil Infusion

• 1). Peel an orange carefully, peeling only the top orange rind using a knife or a peeler.
  
  
• 2). Dry the rinds that you have just peeled by letting them sit for a day or two until they are completely dry.
  
  
• 3). Take a canning jar and fill it with the dried sweet orange peels.
  
  
• 4). Cover the peels with a carrier oil of your choice. You can also warm up the oil slightly, making it easier for the peels to infuse in the oil.
  
  
• 5). Cover the jar tightly and let it sit for three to six weeks.
  
  
• 6). Strain the oil with a strainer into another jar.
  
  

Sweet Orange Oil Water Extraction

• 1). Cut the peels in smaller pieces and place them in a double boiler. You can use fresh peels for water extraction.
  
  
• 2). Add water to the peels and simmer them at a low temperature. Allow them to simmer for an entire day. The longer they simmer, the more oil will be extracted.
  
  
• 3). Strain the liquid into a canning jar and cover tightly.
