I plan to buy another this year and lately they have been the small ones
that itsjoannotjoann mentioned. I'll look soon though because I'll also
buy a pint of apple brandy and try adding that for the next month or

Be a bit careful! Don't drown it
Push some holes into it and drizzle a

Do it every week or so until you want to eat it
Do report back what you find
