Let stand and infuse for at least 1 hour. Bring to a boil while stirring. Remove from the heat and puree with a hand blender, if desired. Return to the heat and simmer gently for about 6-7 minutes while stirring. Add apricot brandy or liqueur, if desired. Once the gelling test is positive, pour the mixture into jars while still hot, seal, and leave the jars in place until cool.
