Katy wanted my chockcherry jelly recipe,I told her I'd find this one for her MOM to try for Crabapples or chokecherrys.Its sipping liquer,really easy and so good
Ingredients:
4 quarts crabapples
4 cups sugar
3 cups vodka
Procedure:
Take a 4 quart mason jar, and fill it with crabapples that have been washed and quartered (you could take the stems and cores out, but it makes no difference and is a lot more work). Add 4 cups of sugar and three cups of vodka. Store the jar on its side, turning once every day for 16 days to get the sugar to dissolve. After 16 days, filter out the fruit bits (Gertie recommends using a knee-high nylon stocking, as this can be suspended for a few days to get every last drop out), and bottle. This recipe can be done on nearly any scale from 1 qt. to 4qt. (I've never seen a mason jar more than 1 gallon), and two bottles of vodka will normally yield about five bottles of liqueur.
