Boozy fruit for Christmas


This is something that is in my cupboard all year round its also great for Easter Simnal cake and blended up for mince pies as i don't like suet in my mince pies, nice in light fruit cake and of course Christmas cake.

Get a big bowl and mix everything together store in jar and if your passing it in the kitchen give it a jiggle let this stand for about 6 weeks before making Christmas cake.
