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?

I'll try and get a bottle of it when we return from Italy this summer.
