Ingredients:
- 6 cups brown sugar
- 2 cups white sugar
- Zest of 2 lemons
- 1/2 cup rum
- 3/4 cup water
Instructions:
-
Combine Ingredients: In a large stainless or enamel pot, combine the brown sugar, white sugar, lemon zest, rum, and water.
-
Bring to a Boil: Place the pot over medium heat and bring the mixture to a boil, stirring continuously until the sugar dissolves completely.
-
Simmer: Once the mixture reaches a boil, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer gently. Stir the mixture often to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
-
Thicken: Allow the sauce to simmer for about 20-30 minutes, or until it reaches the desired thickness. Stir occasionally to prevent burning.
-
Prepare Jars: While the sauce is simmering, prepare your canning jars by washing them thoroughly and sterilizing them in boiling water.
-
Ladle Sauce: Once the sauce has thickened to your liking, carefully ladle it into the clean, hot jars, leaving about 1/4 inch of headspace at the top.
-
Seal Jars: Wipe the rims of the jars with a clean, damp cloth to remove any residue. Then, place the lids on the jars and screw on the bands until they are fingertip tight.
-
Process Jars: Place the filled jars in a boiling water bath canner, ensuring they are fully submerged in water. Process the jars for 10 minutes if you are at an altitude of up to 1000 feet.
-
Cool and Store: Carefully remove the jars from the canner and place them on a clean kitchen towel to cool. Once completely cool, check the seals on the jars to ensure they are airtight. Store the sealed jars in a cool, dark place for up to one year.

Enjoy: Use this delicious Peach Rum Sauce to elevate your favorite desserts, cocktails, or even as a delightful gift for friends and family. 🎁🍰🍹
