How would you scale up muddling to a batch size? I'm making a scaled up version of a pumpkin old fashioned that calls for muddling one orange wedge. I'm making a batch size of 10 servings. Do I just muddle 10 orange wedges and let that infuse into the whole batch? Or is there a smarter, more precise way to get that little bit of juice and oils from the orange into the batch?

I would go with using orange peels and confuse it for some time or add orange liqueur. If you will leave orange wedges you will not have control over the taste since it will change from time.
