Orange-Infused Rum Gimlets

Slice oranges, and place in a 2-qt. pitcher. Add rum; cover and let stand 8 to 12 hours. Stir in lime juice, orange liqueur, and simple syrup, and fill pitcher with ice. Serve immediately.

*To make simple syrup, bring 1/2 cup sugar and 1/2 cup water to a boil in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Boil 1 minute or until sugar dissolves. Cool 30 minutes.
