Time 1h15m

Yield 2 quart jars, 8-16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

8 peaches, skinned, halved & pitted (2# total)
4 cups sugar
2/3 cup water
1 teaspoon almond extract
brandy (see recipe)

Steps:

  • Prepare peaches (dip peaches into boiled water, then into ice-cold water--skins will slip off; then halve and twist to remove the pit).
  • Make a syrup with the sugar & water in a large sauce-pan; stir mixture until it boils.
  • To the boiling syrup, add peach halves and extract.
  • When fruit is cooked (5-7 min), remove pan from heat, drain (reserve); cool fruits and spoon carefully into prepared jars.
  • Half fill jars with reserved syrup, run a butter knife down the jar to remove air bubbles; fill jars to the top with BRANDY.
  • Seal jars with lids, shake gently to mix syrup and brandy.
  • Store in a cool dark place--use within six months.
  • I've also added a pinch of cinnamon and cloves with VERY good results.

Tips for Making Peaches in Brandy

  • Choose ripe, firm peaches for canning. Avoid peaches that are bruised or damaged.
  • Use a sharp knife to peel the peaches. To make the peeling easier, you can blanch them in boiling water for 30 seconds before peeling.
  • To prevent the peaches from turning brown, you can add a little lemon juice or ascorbic acid to the canning jar before adding the peaches.
  • Use a good quality brandy for the recipe. A VSOP or XO brandy will give the peaches a more complex flavor.
  • Sterilize the canning jars and lids before using them. This will help to prevent bacteria from growing in the jars.
