Peel oranges leaving no white pith.
Slice crosswise into thin slices, or cut into segments and place in a serving bowl.
Stir sugar and water together over a low heat until disolved and then boil for 2mins.
Cool, add Brandy and Grand Marnier or Contreau.

Serve at room temperature with whipped cream and/or ice cream.
Can be made ahead, (I have done this 2 - 4 days ahead) and stored in fridge. Bring to room temp to serve or if preferred serve chilled.
