Brandy Peaches.
If possible procure "Morris White" peaches. Peel very carefully and throw into cold water to keep them white. To 6 pounds of fruit allow the same weight of sugar; make a syrup of 2 pounds of the sugar and cook peaches very slowly until tender. Lay them on a platter to cool. Then add the remainder of the sugar and make a rich syrup; remove from fire and let it cool a little. Place the peaches in jars. To every 2 cups of syrup add 1 of perfectly white brandy, and pour over the peaches.
