Apricot Liqueur

Sip in cordial glasses or dribble over vanilla ice cream. Probably my easiest liqueur recipe and very good. Since it's made with dried apricots, it can be made year-round. Years ago i gave this a couple times in a monogrammed pocket flask as a 21st birthday present. Cooking time is actually infusion time (at 5-7 days, it's a relatively short time for a fruit-flavored liqueur).

Steps

Place apricots and sugar in a screw-top jar.
Add vodka , screw cover on tightly and shake to dissolve the sugar.
Leave for 5-7 days , inverting the jar daily.
Strain liqueur into a decanter through a fine sieve and store in refrigerator.
Apricots may be saved , chopped and used as a topping on ice cream.

Ingredients

dried apricots, superfine sugar, vodka
