| Add vodka and sugar to jar. Stir until sugar is dissolved. Put in whole, ripe plums; stir gently. Screw on cap and twist back one turn. Check once a month. Give one or two gentle stirs with wooden spoon. Replace cap. Repeat every month for three months. Decant into decorative bottles and cork. NOTE: These plums are generally only available in August - plenty of time for Christmas hostess gifts. I found bottles at Williams-Sonoma. A circle of holiday material over the cork and some gold cord makes for a nice presentation. |
