Perfumed Oranges is a simple and elegant dessert that is perfect for entertaining or a light summer snack. The oranges are cut in a way that allows the honey mixture to seep into the fruit, creating a sweet and tangy flavor that is sure to be a crowd-pleaser. This dessert is also relatively healthy, with the natural sugar and antioxidants from the oranges and honey. Orange blossom water adds a unique touch to the dish and is commonly used in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisine.

Instructions

1.	Cut the top and bottom off each orange so they can sit flat on a surface.
2.	Using a small knife, cut along the edge of the orange segments to remove the flesh from the skin.
3.	In a bowl, mix together the honey, orange juice, orange blossom water, and cinnamon until combined.
4.	Place the oranges in a shallow dish and pour the honey mixture over them, using a spoon to drizzle the mixture between the segments.
5.	Chill the oranges in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving with a mint sprig (optional).
