How to Make Plum Liquor

  1. Wash and quarter approximately 2 pounds of ripe plums.
  2. Gently place the quartered plums into a clean 4-quart mason jar.
  3. Add 3 cups (710ml) of dark rum to the jar.
  4. Add 4 cups (790g) of granulated sugar to the jar.
  5. Seal the jar tightly. Turn the jar once daily for 15 days to help dissolve the sugar.
  6. After 15 days, let the mixture sit undisturbed for an additional day (16 days total).
  7. On day 17, carefully strain the plum liquor through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth lined strainer into a clean container to remove the fruit pieces.
  8. Bottle your homemade plum liquor and enjoy! Store in a cool, dark place.
