About National Brandied Fruit Day
Brandied fruit is a type of preserved fruit that has been soaked in brandy or another type of liquor.
The fruit is typically first cooked in a sugar syrup, which helps to preserve it and add sweetness, and then it is submerged in the alcohol, where it absorbs the flavors and aromas of the liquor. Brandied fruit can be made with a variety of fruits, such as cherries, peaches, apricots, and plums, and is often used as a topping for desserts or as an ingredient in baked goods.
The alcohol content of brandied fruit can vary depending on how long it has been soaked and the type of liquor used, but it is generally low enough that it is safe for children and non-drinkers to consume in moderation.
