The fruit is steeping in the wine; this is fortified wine, not hooch.
Edit Dec. 3, 2019: See Claire’s comment below… she wrote this page, and evidently it made the trip from Connecticut to Texas!
From a box sold in San Antonio, Texas.

I had this recipe years ago, maybe 20….lost it over the years and so happy you posted it ! Thank you. Will be making it for Christmas. Just curious…where did you get this recipe?
It was in a box of recipes sold online–the other recipes might shed more light, but I wasn’t able to determine the owner!
adgo The reason I am so interested is, that IS my recipe LOL! The handwriting (I was learning calligraphy at the time), the paper (a mini legal pad in blue), I lived in Baltic, CT at the time and donated a ton of stuff to St. Mary’s Rummage Sale in Baltic.
Huh, that’s amazing! This box was from so early in the site’s history that I don’t totally remember all the details–I didn’t even pin these recipes on pinterest, yet–but I will and then we’ll have to see what else you have in here! Maybe that’ll have more clues?! And I’ll update the post with this info, thank you!
