Recipe Instructions

Prepare Ball brand or Kerr brand jars and closures according to manufacturer's instructions.

Treat fruit to prevent darkening. Rinse and drain. Combine sugar and water in a large saucepot. Bring to a boil; remove from heat. Stir in liqueur.

Place apples, pears, pineapple spears, and grapes, one layer at a time, in the syrup. Simmer fruit in the syrup 5 minutes. Pack hot fruit and a strip of lemon peel in hot jars, leaving 1/4-inch headspace.

Carefully ladle hot syrup over fruit, leaving 1/4-inch headspace. Remove air bubbles with a nonmetallic spatula. Wipe jar rim clean. Place lid on jar with sealing compound next to glass. Screw band down evenly and firmly just until a point of resistance is met -- fingertip tight.

Process 20 minutes in a boiling-water canner. At elevations higher than 1,000 feet, boil 2 additional minutes for each additional 1,000 feet elevation.

This recipe yields about 3 quarts.
