  • Cut the whole oranges and lemons into quarters. Squeeze the pieces to release the juice then add the unpeeled squeezed fruit to the pot. Add the ginger ale, orange juice, or water to the pot. Add the remaining ingredients to the pot EXCEPT the whiskey.
  • Once the fruit is softened and mushed from cooking, strain the liquid through a fine mesh strainer to remove the solids and spices. (If strainer is not fine enough to catch spices, use a regular colander lined with several layers of cheesecloth.) Press the pieces of fruit using the back of a spoon in the strainer to remove all the liquid. Discard the remains of the fruit/spices.
  • Allow the mixture to cool slightly (adding alcohol to very hot or boiling liquid will cook off some alcohol thereby defeating the entire purpose of boilo; so, don't boil your boilo!!) Away from heat, add the bottle of whiskey. Stir to blend.
