12 Steps to Canning Apricots

Step 12, Apricot Nectar

While canning apricots we often discover some apricots with spots needing removal. We set these aside to make nectar. We remove the spots and pit them. While the apricots are being canned we will put them into or blender adding just enough water to liquefy them. They will them be put into jars and the two-piece lids applied. They will be processed the same as the canned apricots. Process 20 minutes for pints and 25 for quarts.
