Bash six cardamom pods in a pestle and mortar until they split.
Melt the marmalade in a pan, then whisk in the vodka. Add the crushed pods. Don't boil the mix, simply warm it for a few minutes.
Leave to infuse off the heat for 20 minutes, then strain.
Add the Cointreau and lemon juice and chill (or keep in the freezer).
Serve in glasses with a little more marmalade in the bottom, ice and a cardamom pod floating on top.
