Grape And Apricot Liqueur - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
2 lbs grapes
1 cup good quality organic apricot
1/8 - 1/3 cup sugar
3 -4 cups vodka
Preparation
-
Wash and dry the grapes.
Discard the stems and place them in a food processor.
Process, pulsing the machine, until you get a juicy pulp.
Cut the apricots into small pieces with kitchen shears.
Place the grape pulp and apricots in a 6-cup jar or bottle; add 2 tblsps to 1/3 cup sugar (depending on how sweet you like your drinks) to the jar and top with vodka.
Shake well and leave in a cool, dark place for 3-4 weeks, shaking once a day for the first week so that the sugar dissolves completely.
The longer you leave it, the mellower it will become.
Strain through a dampened coffee filter.
Press down on solids to extract all liquid.
Pour into a bottle and seal.
Keep in a cool, dark place.
Will keep for years.
