How to make homemade fresh compote

Get your seasonal fruits. I get mine right away from our garden. This is an apricot tree

And this is our cherry tree

Pour the cold water into a heavy bottom pan and bring to a gentle simmer over a low heat

Meanwhile wash your fruit. I have apricots, sweet baby apples, plums and cherries.

Cut the apricots and apples into halves

As the water starts simmering add the sugar stir once and let it come to simmer for the second time

When the bubbles appear and sugar completely dissolved it's time to add the fruit

Cover and let it come to a hard boil

Let it boil for 2-3 minutes turn off the heat, put the lid on and let cool down. My. Kitchen smells amazing

When it cools down pour into a glass jar and take to the fridge for about 3 hours

All is Left to do is to enjoy the fresh and tasty compote with ice cubes
