Apricot Liqueur

Yield: 3 cups

 2 c Smashed apricot pits
1/2 ts Ground cinnamon
1/2 ts Ground coriander
2 c Vodka 100 proof
1 c Sugar syrup

Partly fill a cloth bag with the apricot pits (available at most health food stores). Smash with a hammer, keeping shells and meaty centers. Place smashed pits in a 1-quart container. Add cinnamon, coriander, and vodka. Store for 2 months in a cool dark place. Then filter through a cheesecloth lined strainer and discard fruit pits. Strain a few times until clear. Add sugar syrup and age for an additional 2 weeks. Recipe may require some fine-tuning and apricot extract can be added to offer additional flavoring.
