How to Make Apricot Liqueur

  1. Place 1 cup dried apricots and 1 cup granulated sugar in a clean, 1-quart screw-top jar.
  2. Add 1 750ml bottle (750ml) vodka to the jar. Secure the lid tightly and shake well until the sugar is completely dissolved.
  3. Leave the jar in a cool, dark place for 5-7 days, inverting the jar gently once a day to ensure even infusion.
  4. After 5-7 days, carefully strain the liqueur through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a clean decanter or bottle. Discard the solids.
  5. Store the finished liqueur in the refrigerator. Save the strained apricots; chop them finely and use as a delightful topping for ice cream or yogurt.
