Back in the 70's we used to make a 'friendship fruit' which was made and passed along to friends who added to it, passed some along, thus the 'friendship fruit'. Don't know if it was just a New England thingy but my friend from California gave me some of her 'friendship fruit'. It was enjoyed by many on ice cream, enhancing pound cakes etc.
I found this recipe which reminded me of those many friendships. So, I'm sending my friendship on to you!! I hope you enjoy! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Cheers.gif" alt="" />

Oh geez! I remember that! After a while you couldn't get rid of it because everyone you knew had it! It had a name, like Herman, maybe?

I don't remember the name just that it was a 'friendship starter'. Never did have a recipe just added some alcohol and fruit and passed it on. I got so sick of it but this recipes sounds a little different. Just gave me a wave of the past..... <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Wink.gif" alt="" />
