Yield:

5 pints

Ingredients:

• 16 cinnamon sticks
• 4 whole cloves
• 4 slices of gingerroot
• 2 cups sugar
• 1 1/2 cups white vinegar
• 6 cups water
• 4 tablespoons fruit fresh

Instructions:

1. Prepare Peaches:

   • Begin by halving the peaches and placing them in 4 tablespoons of fruit fresh mixed with 8 cups of water. Allow them to drain when ready.

2. Prepare Spice Bag:

   • Tie together the cinnamon sticks, whole cloves, and slices of gingerroot in a spice bag.

3. Create Pickling Liquid:

   • In a large stainless or enamel pot, combine the spice bag, sugar, and white vinegar.
   • Cover the pot and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat and let the pickling liquid simmer gently for 5 minutes.

4. Add Peach Halves:

   • Carefully add the peach halves to the boiling pickling liquid.
   • Allow the peaches to boil gently in the liquid for 8 minutes.

5. Final Steps:

   • Bring the pickling liquid and peaches to a full boil.
   • Once boiling, remove the pot from the heat and take out the spice bag.
   • Pack the hot jars with the peach halves, leaving about 3/4 inch of space from the top rim.
   • Pour the boiling liquid over the peaches in the jars, ensuring they are completely covered but leaving about 1/2 inch of headspace.
   • Remove any air bubbles from the jars.
   • Finally, process the jars in a boiling water bath for 20 minutes if you are at altitudes up to 1000 feet.
