Autumn rum recipe

An arrangement to avoid morale drops!

You need two apples, an abate pear, about twenty grapes, and a large jar. Choose the apple variety you prefer (fuji or gala are good for the game). Your fruit must come from organic farming, to avoid an infusion of pesticides and other chemicals....
