Peach Cordial (general method for any cordial)

I don't have the recipe handy, but here are the basics.

Peel and slice the peaches. Cook them on the stove top with sugar (amount depends on the peaches sweetness). This eliminates the need to add sugar syrup later.

Put peach mixture into a mason jar and cover with either vodka, white rum or white brandy (other liquors can be tried, these are my favorites).

Add spices, I use cinnamon and clove and sometimes a vanilla bean.

Put in a cupboard and shake every day for a month.

Strain, and taste.  It will be rough at this point.  Put up as long as you can stand it.

After a year (if it lasts that long, I make about 32 quarts at a time, so I have some last the whole year) it will be smooth as silk.
