Hi Everyone
I am new here. I just made my first batch of brandied cherries.
But a problem. I used the recipe from Ball Blue Book.
But ran out of liquid for the jars way before all the jars were filled.
Is this normal. What did I do wrong?
I filled the jars with cherries (pints) and then poured the syrup in. Was
supposed to get 6 pints but only had enough for 3 pints.
Please advise, what do you guys do. Brandy is very expensive.
Thanks in advance.
