I misspoke and said half a cup but meant half a box of dark brown sugar.
I know, I know. Everyone thinks prunes are for old folks, but seriously it is an awesome snack.  If you cannot find the other preserved seeds on this list, you can do it with just the prunes and apricots. That is how a LOT of people do it here (because it is very expensive to buy all the other things).

2 pkg. Mariani pitted prunes, 24 oz.
1 pkg. Mariani Mediterranean apricots, 16 oz.
2-3 large pkg. wet li hing mui (a subscriber said this is also found in the Latino section as "saladitos")
2 small pkg. wet lemon peel
3/4 c. lemon juice
1/2 box dark brown sugar (I said 1/2 cup, but misspoke)
1-1/2 Tbsp. Hawaiian salt
1-1/2 Tbsp. whiskey
1/2 Tbsp. Chinese five spice
5 whole cloves

Stir ingredients together and soak for 3-5 days.  Enjoy!

This is the recipe mom has used for years.

From Wikipedia:
Li hing mui is salty dried plum. It can be found in Hawaiian and Asian markets. It has a strong, distinctive flavor, and is often said to be an acquired taste, as it has a combination of sweet, sour, and salty taste. It has also been described as tart, and even tangy. Originally from China, the name "li hing mui" means "traveling plum". "Li hing" is "traveling" and "mui" is "plum."
