Steps

1

Wash, dry using a clean towel and peel the loquats
2

Place them (whole, together with their seeds) in a glass bottle with a wide mouth that seals thoroughly, add the alcohol and leave them in a cool dark place (a cool cupboard is a fine choice) for about six weeks. Shake the bottle from time to time.
3

When the time runs out, prepare a syrup with the water and sugar.
4

Filter the alcohol from the bottle that it was during this whole time with the fruits, add the syrup and place in a clean bottle (the same, or a different one but which should seal thoroughly) where you store it.
5

Store it in the same -cool and dark- place for an additional 3-4 weeks, making sure to shake the bottle from time to time.
6

After all this time, the liqueur is ready to serve. Serve it chilled. It is ideal for sweets that contain cream and fruits.
