Beggers In Rum
Yummy to eat out of the jar or on ice cream.
Steps
In each of 3 wide mouth 1 pind clean , sterile jars layer 1 / 3 prunes , golden raisins , figs , apricots , and dark raisins.
Add 1 / 3 cup rum to each-or a touch more if you like.
In a 2 quart pan mix water with sugar , bring to a boil over high heat.
Pour hot syrup into each jar leaving 1 / 2 inch head space.
Cover and let stand until fruits are plump-around 1 week.
