Peach Liqueur – Part Two
A couple of weeks ago I started a batch of peach liqueur. It was time to strain out the solids.
You can see the solids. They’re sitting in a strainer that we have dripping into a food-grade plastic bucket. We ended up letting the peach solids drip into the bucket for about an hour and a half . We were able to capture almost two cups more of peach liqueur during that time. So we now have a little over a gallon of liqueur aging in the wine closet. In two or three weeks we’ll siphon it into wine bottles.
The Man of the House and I sneaked a taste of the peach liqueur before we put it into the wine closet. It was very nice. I was concerned that the vodka and brandy would overpower the peach taste. That’s not the case at all. It is very light tasting and very peachy!
To follow along as we finish the process be sure to check out these posts:
Hello,
I’m making some now and have been advised with other liqueurs to make enough to let some age more. Would you advise that with the peach liqueur?
thank you
Cliff – I haven’t had any experience with this, but it can’t hurt to try. The only problem will be having the will power to hold any back. Peach Liqueur is VERY tasty. 🙂
