Apples Stewed in Whiskey Recipe ingredients

To prepare this Apples Stewed in Whiskey Recipe, first pare and core, without dividing, 2 pounds of sweet apples. Place them in a saucepan with 2 glasses of whiskey, a pound and a half of sugar, a little whole ginger, the rind and juice of 2 lemons, and an inch of cinnamon. Simmer very gently for two hours. Take the scum off as it rises, and turn the apples every now and then. When the apples are clear, take them off carefully, place them in the jars in which they are to be kept, boil the liquid a few minutes, and pour it over them. This is a very nice dessert dish. If tied down closely, the fruit will keep twelve months.
