Tater's Fruit Recipe
From Homedistiller

Taters fruit recipe;Take 1 bushel[40 - 50 lb] of any fruit/ berry.Freeze them thaw and add 20 lbs sugar 1/4 cup lemon juice 1 pack E 1118 and 1/2 oz distillers yeast: If apples or pears grind and or mash them. Peaches nectarines plums cherry's blueberry .I pour boiling water with dissolved sugar on it and lemon juice .I blend it with a drill powered thin set mortar mixer. Thats blades I had sharpened .Adding water as I blend till I have a 13 gallon total wash.That's a thin gravy or thick soup texture. I pour mine through a rat wire sieve I made to remove seeds and any fruit that wasn't blended.Stir hell outta wash to get air back in wash and take a gallon of cooled wash and add 1 pack of E1118 yeast and distillers yeast stirring in let set till morning and add back stir in well and cover and vapor lock. Remember to leave space in ferment for pulp to rise or you'll have a mess and stir pulp gently back in wash as needed. Will make 3 gallons of around 100 proof fruit likker. If doing a no sugar added wash add more fruit to get wash to texture and use this chart to figure fruit sugar content. http://www.nutritiondata.com/facts-001-02s01ja.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" rel="nofollow
