Chef tips
For deeper flavor, let the oranges develop nicely browned edges without burning. If you prefer a completely smooth texture, strain twice.
Substitutions
You can replace the honey with maple syrup for a vegan version and omit the egg white foam, using 60 ml (1/4 cup) aquafaba whisked with the cinnamon instead. Lime can replace lemon for a brighter acidity.
