Preserve the summer in a jar! Sounds ridiculous? OK, preserve the fruits of the summer in a jar and enjoy them in winter! Easy with a rum pot!
Ingredients
- fruits like peaches, strawberries, blackberries, …
- sugar
- rum, i.e. 54%
Instructions

Wash, clean and cut your fruits.
-
Add a layer of fruits to a large jar.

-
Continue to add a layer of fruits and sugar during the summer and always fill enough rum in to cover all fruits.

Enjoy on i.e. ice cream, pudding or cake or eat the fruits without anything and drink the rum.
Notes
More ideas for rum pot
Since there is always more rum than fruits in the jar, chances are that you have some “leftover rum”. You can add a tablespoon of rum to your coffee or tea. Another great idea: Add 1 – 2 tablespoons of that rum to a champagne glass and fill it up with champagne.
