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.
