  1. Oh my goodness, I am so sorry!!! I made these up over two months ago and forgot to post my review. I let these sit for over two weeks soaking them almost daily in more rum( the fruit really soaks it up) then processed them in my pressure canner so they would last over six months. We opened one jar up this month and although I should have opened them the night before and added more rum they were still absolutely delicious over our ice cream. Will be making these again. Thank You for sharing this recipe.
