Today is National Brandied Fruit Day.

Brandied Fruit Recipe

1. In a very large bowl, combine fruit and sugars, tossing well.
2. Cover and let macerate for 1 hour, tossing every 15 minutes.
3. Divide fruit among 8 sterilized pint jars or a gallon covered crock. Pour in brandy making sure fruit is submerged. Cover and store in a cool place for at least one month.
4. Since the brandied fruit will only improve with age, let the flavours develop for more than one month.
5. Once aged, store the brandied fruit on a counter.

Serve with ice cream and other desserts.
