3377.0. "Brandied Fruit" by MR4DEC::HAROUTIAN () Mon Dec 16 1991 13:48

    I'm looking for a recipe for brandied fruit - it contains cherries and
    pineapple, and as it sits for a while it ferments slightly. I remember
    that to make more, you use half of what you have as a "starter", I just
    don't remember the original ingredients.
    
    Thanks, Lynn

There's a long discussion on this in the conference somewhere.  It was
called "friendship bowl" or something like that, maybe?

    If memory serves me correctly, you start with 3 cups of sugar and
                    2 cups (drained) each of 
    
                    pineapple chunks
                    marachino cherries
                    mandarin oranges
    
    Every 2 weeks thereafter, rotating the 3 fruits, add 2 cups fruit and
    1 cup of sugar.  Course, you need to "draw down" the current contents
    during the 2 week period if you intend to keep adding
