Wash a jam jar or storage jar in hot, soapy water and dry thoroughly.
Do not was the fruit, simply dust off any visible dirt. There is no preparation involved - stoned fruits must remain whole.
Fill the jar, layering the fruit and sugar together using equal amount of each.
Pour enough rum over to cover the fruit.
Secure the lid and leave for at least 3 months before use. Serve with single cream or natural yogurt for an exceptionally delicious dessert.
Notes from The Sugar Club:
- Some jars can be mixed fruits or if preferred, a jar can be filled using just one of the fruits.
- This recipe gets the name "Neverending" because at any time fruit can be added to the jar as long as equal sugar is added at the same time and the rum is topped up to keep the fruit covered. During the winter when some soft fruits are not available, melon pieces can be added (remove skin and seeds). This will keep your jar going until the beginning of the next summer when you can start to fill the jar again. As your jar matures, you will have something even more special.
