How to Make Brandy And Spice Peach Preserves Lisa Sizemore

  1. In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, combine the sliced peaches and granulated sugar. Gently stir to coat the peaches.
  2. Place the cinnamon stick, cloves, and nutmeg (tied in a cheesecloth bag) into the pot with the peaches and sugar.
  3. Add the lemon zest and brandy to the pot.
  4. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to low and continue to simmer, stirring frequently, until the peaches become translucent and the mixture has thickened, approximately 1 and 1/2 hours. The mixture should sheet off a spoon.
  5. Skim any foam that rises to the surface.
  6. Remove the spice bag from the pot.
  7. Ladle the hot peach preserves into sterilized jars, leaving 1/4 inch headspace.
  8. Wipe the rims of the jars clean, and seal with lids and rings.
  9. Process the filled jars in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes (adjust processing time based on altitude – consult a canning guide for accurate instructions).
  10. Remove jars from water bath and let cool completely. You should hear a ‘pop’ sound as the jars seal.
