Tips:
- Fresh apricots: Use ripe, in-season apricots for the best flavor. If fresh apricots are unavailable, you can use frozen or dried apricots, but the flavor will not be as good.

- Sweetness: The amount of sugar you add to the sauce will depend on your personal preference. If you like your sauce tart, add less sugar. If you like it sweet, add more sugar.
- Spices: You can add a variety of spices to the sauce to enhance the flavor. Some popular choices include cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger.
- Storage: Apricot sauce can be stored in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. You can also freeze the sauce for up to six months.
