Brandied Peaches or Pears

This is a preservation recipe designed for long-term storage. Once properly sealed, the brandied fruit can be stored in a cool, dark place for up to 1 year. The flavors will meld and improve after 2-4 weeks of storage.

Store sealed jars in a cool, dark pantry or cellar for up to 1 year. Once opened, refrigerate and consume within 2-3 weeks. If any jar fails to seal properly (lid doesn't pop when pressed), refrigerate immediately and use within 2 weeks. Discard if you notice any signs of mold, off odors, or fermentation.
