Method

Put the cream, milk, spices and sugar in a pan. Cut the peel of one of the reserved orange quarters into two. Add to the pan. Bring slowly to the boil, remove from the heat then leave to infuse for 20 mins. Sieve into another pan.
In a bowl, cover the gelatine leaves in cold water and soak for 5 mins, until softened. Squeeze out any excess liquid and stir into the spiced milk. Reheat to dissolve the gelatine if necessary. Add the brandy or rum, if using. Divide between 8 wine glasses. Chill overnight to set.
Meanwhile, make the compote. Strain the fruit and pour the liquid into a saucepan (reserving the berries) with the wine, lemon zest, vanilla seeds, sugar and orange zest. Heat gently and stir to dissolve the sugar. Simmer for 10 mins, or until syrupy.
Put the berries in a bowl and pour over the compote, then leave to cool completely. Chill in the fridge overnight.
Heat the compote until just warm and spoon over the panna cottas, or serve at room temperature. Decorate each with a thin strip of pared orange peel from the remaining quarter and serve with some dessert biscuits, if you like.
