1
Prepare the Dried Fruit
Place the dried apricots in a bowl and cover with 250ml of water. Allow them to soak for at least 1 hour or until they are soft.
2
Make the Syrup
In a saucepan, combine the soaked apricots (with the soaking water) and add 150g of sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar has dissolved.
3
Add Wine and Spices
Once the sugar is dissolved, add 375ml of white wine, the juice of 2 tablespoons of lemon, the split vanilla pod, and the cinnamon stick. Stir to combine.
4
Simmer the Mixture
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the sauce thickens slightly.
5
Strain the Mixture
Once thickened, remove from heat. Strain the mixture through a fine sieve into a clean container, pressing the apricots to extract as much liquid as possible.
6
Cool and Store
Let the drappier cool to room temperature. Transfer to a bottle and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
