150% version?
I had a plum brandy in Carcasson last summer, they mix it with something that looks like thin custard, bloody lovely it is but 2 and you're legless.
Anyway, hope you're having better weather than us

Cheers chaps, you are always welcome to pop in.
Gio, the tree outside my bedroom window was heaving with Mirrabelle plums so it seemed a shame not to use them.
So about 20kilos, 10 bottles of vodka, 5 bottles of brandy, and 5 bags of sugar later, and a little simmering to promote the fermentation, I have about 20 mason jars improving by the day. The first was opened about a month after it was bottled and yes you are right...2 glasses and KERPOW! The majority will be left for 4 months at least. Interesting to know what the thin custard was? Advocaat?

Wasn't advocaat it wasn't that sweet. It also had a hint of vanilla aBout it.
I'll try and get a bottle of it when we return from Italy this summer.
