Tried it today OMG it's nectar! Tasted just like a fruit syrup but is almost neat rum, you could drink a pint without any trouble, well that is until it hit you a few minutes later and then you "might" remember Boxing day! ;-) ;-) ;-) |

I used to make this years ago, start off with strawberries, cover with sugar, didn't measure it as recipe made it too sweet, then covered with brandy. I covered the liquid with a clingfilm covered disc of plastic, this was removed when the next batch of fruit went in, and repeated until full. |

Hubby made one two years, started it off in the summer and yes, we did resist until New Years eve. Only a small serving was needed as it was so potent, we both found it far to sickly sweet for our liking, however my sister loved it. Have now given the Rumptof pot to her, wont be making it again. |

The old style really dried up apricots were wonderful for recipes. Now I can only find the plump "Turkish" ones. |

Looks very much like making sloe gin which I do in one of those big jars that Lidl gherkins come in. |

Hi, I got one for Christmas and will start it off today with some strawberrys and maybe some currants from the freezer. I have had a look at some recipes they seem fairly vague some say 1lb fruit to 1lb sugar first, then 1 lb to 1/2lb later additions I guess as long as the lot is covered in rum it ain't going too far wrong. ;-) |
