Ingredients
1lb damsons
4-8oz sugar (depending on how sweet you want it)
1ltr cheap brandy
Method
1. Sterilise a large jar that is big enough to contain all the ingredients.
2. Put all the damsons and sugar into the jar. Add brandy and fill to top of the jar,
covering the fruit. Make sure the lid is firmly on and give it a good shake to disperse sugar.
3 . Put into a cool dark place; shake daily for a week, then once a week for a month.
4 . The brandy will be ready by Christmas. Decant into sterilised bottles.

Currently steeping - although did end up making mega quantities in order to fill a demi-john.
