Beggers in Rum Recipe

Cook Time: 5 minutes
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 15 minutes
Yield: 3 pint Jars

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 cups prunes
  • 1 cup golden raisins
  • 1 1/2 cups dried figs
  • 1 cup dark raisins
  • 1 cup rum (plus extra if desired)
  • 1 1/3 – 1 1/2 cups water
  • 1 1/3 cups sugar

Instructions:

  1. Prepare Jars: In each of 3 wide mouth 1-pint clean, sterile jars, layer the prunes, golden raisins, dried figs, apricots, and dark raisins evenly.

  2. Add Rum: Pour 1/3 cup of rum into each jar, or a touch more if you prefer a stronger rum flavor.

  3. Make Syrup: In a 2-quart pan, mix water with sugar and bring it to a boil over high heat. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved.

  4. Fill Jars: Carefully pour the hot syrup into each jar, leaving about 1/2 inch of headspace at the top.

  5. Let Stand: Cover the jars and let them stand at room temperature until the fruits are plump, which usually takes around 1 week.

  6. Check and Top up: After 2 days, check the jars and add more rum if the fruits appear dry on top. This step ensures that the fruits remain moist and infused with the delicious rum flavor.

  7. Serve: After a week of soaking, your Beggers in Rum are ready to serve! These delightful treats can be enjoyed on their own or used to elevate other desserts. They can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 months, allowing you to enjoy their rich flavors whenever you desire.
