For a while now I have had quite an abundance of apricots in my chest freezer, at a guess maybe 20kg or so and I have recently been pondering over what to do with them. I have already made plenty of apricot wine so I dont think I need to do any more of that.
One thought I came up with that Im liking more and more is the idea of brewing up a large batch of apricot wine, or enough to use up the fruit anyway, and then freeze distill it into a sort of apricot brandy. At least that would be something different to try anyhow.
Has anyone done this before and how did it go? I think the addition of raisins, sultanas and a dose of oak chips might produce something nice.
Cheers
