Cherry Brandy for Christmas

I made some cherry brandy last night after picking 2.80kg of cherries. Well even after eating our fill of cherries I still have tons left so I have decided that I shall make a Rumtopf for Christmas ……….. google it like I did…….. I have a few strawberries and some raspberries that can go in too so it should be utterly delicious by Christmas and just think of all that rum soaked fruit mush that I will be able to use like a sauce over ice cream.If you have been for a walk lately you may have spotted that it is going to be a cracking year for blackberries…… hmmmmm now I am wondering whether to pick more cherries and try making cherry wine. I have nothing to lose as the cherries are free for the picking. Then I will need to make some blackberry wine and probably some plum wine using fruit picked locally from hedgerows..

    This looks sooo good Cheri! I’bet you can use it on top Christmas pudding too omg how delicious! When I was younger in Italy I helped my family make strawberry Liquer & lemon cello quite often. This looks like equal amounts of fun!!!
