   "Take freshly gathered Apricots not too ripe; to Half their Weight
  of loaf Sugar, add as much Water as will cover the Fruit; boil and
  skim it: then put in the Apricots, and let them remain five or six
  Minutes; take them up without Syruup, and ;ay them on Dishes to cool;
  boil the Syrup till reduced one Half; when the Apricots are cold, put
  them in Bottles, and cover them with equal Quantities of syrup and
  French Brandy. If the Apricots be clingstone, they will require more
  scalding." Source: Mrs. Mary Randolph's Virginia Housewife, 1831
