A "drink" similar to Boerenjongens, although this is made with apricots and sherry or white wine. The name translates to "Farming Lassies".

 * 400gr. apricots
 * 400gr. sugar
 * lemon peel or cinnamon stick
 * 50gr. raisins
 * i liter sherry or white wine

Directions
Wash the apricots and leave to drain. Put them in a stoppered bottle and add the lemon peel and raisins.
