Peach compote for winter
In the season of fresh vegetables and fruits, it is essential to prepare for winter, both various vegetable snacks and sweet compotes and jams. An obligatory item on my list of preparations is the delicious and aromatic peach compote for winter, which my whole family enjoys. After all, peaches are a true summer fruit, which is nearly impossible to find fresh in winter. Of course, I try to freeze peaches to make fresh compotes in winter, but ready-made compotes in jars are also very helpful. If you have plenty of storage space, I recommend making peach compote for winter, as it will definitely be liked by everyone!

- water – 2 l;
- peaches – 4-5 pcs;
- sugar – 100-120 g;
- citric acid – 3-4 granules.
Preparation
- First, place a pot with 2 l of water on the heat; you can add a little more to ensure there's enough after boiling for 2 jars of 1 l each (or one jar of 2 l). At the same time, prepare the jars: wash them and sterilize with boiling water, over steam, in the oven, or in the microwave - whichever is convenient for you.
- Wash the peaches, remove the pits, and without peeling, cut them into wedges. There is no need to remove the skin.
- When the water comes to a boil, add the peaches, sugar, and just a pinch of citric acid (a couple of granules).
- Boil the compote for 7-10 minutes and remove from heat.
- Pour the compote into the jars, also adding the fruit pieces; during steeping, they will release their flavor and aroma. Seal the jars with metal sterilized lids and turn them upside down.
- The delicious and aromatic peach compote for winter is ready. You can drink this compote already now; it is not necessary to bottle it, but do seal at least a few jars - you will be very glad to have them in winter!
