Want a completely new kind of mixed fruit juice? Kompot is a Balkan food recipe made by simmering fruits in a lot of water & a little sugar. Sip on this cherry apricot variation with a dose of fruit at the bottom of your glass.
Put the water, cherries, apricot and sugar in a medium pot. Bring to a boil over a high heat on the stove top.
When you have an active boil. Simmer for 30 minutes, or until the cherries have split and the color of the kompot has a ruby hue.
Remove the pot from the heat. Leave to cool in the pot.
Poor in glasses, kompot warm or chilled, and make sure to have a few pieces of fruit in each serving. Keeps in the fridge for 4-5 days, or longer but it may ferment and get a touch fizzy and boozy.
