I know of a little place in Colorado where they attract a lot of winter snowmobilers. They have popular little item they sell in the bar called "Fruit Soup". It is one of those little individual fruit cup deals with couple blasts of Vanilla Schnapps poured over it. Not my bag but I have seen some interesting results after a few of them have been enjoyed. I'll stick with my Crown and save the fruit for mealtime.

Farmer, we all knew that girl in high school. She's what we called a "good egg".
Coop is right though. Corn liquor can't really be true brandy.

We used to do that with the "PJ" we made in a trash can in college. The grain alcohol went into the fruit.
I called a friend of mine yesterday and told him we would now have to call that brandy PJ because we threw the fruit in it. My sister makes jello with fruit in it.
Should we call it Brandy Jello?

A naïve female friend of mine thought she would just eat the fruit left in a jar of blueberry and ended up more intoxicated than those of us who had been partaking of the liquid form. We thought it was hilarious, she, however, was not so amused when she came to the next day.

Back in the 60s we called any white lightning with fruit in it, Moonshine Brandy. Moonshine was any illegal liquor, weather it was clear or fruit added.

You are right Hunter. You do not have Brandy. You have corn mash moonshine with a peach in it.
I too have a family history of making, selling and drinking the stuff.

From undermutts link
Fruit brandy is a distilled beverage produced from mash, juice, wine or residues of culinary fruits. The term covers a broad class of spirits produced across the world, and typically excludes beverages made from grapes, which are referred to as plain brandy (when made from distillation from wine) or pomace brandy (when made directly from grape pomace). Apples, peaches, apricots, plums and blackberries are the most commonly used fruits.
I have many years experience with these products

Hate to bust your bubble Hunter but what you have is "ole sugarhead" (made from corn) with a peach in it.
You could just as easy drop a bolt and nut in it and call it a Cat D8 dozer
Corn is a grain - not a fruit or a vegetable.
