Step 4Weight fruit as necessary
The fruit infuses with alcohol better under vacuum when it's weighted, and therefore underneath the surface of the alcohol bath.
The cucumbers can be weighted with paper clips, as shown below, and suggested in The New York Times article, however I found that simply placing a piece of glass or another bowl on top of the fruit to hold it down inside it's alcohol infusion bath is far easier and more effective.

Probably also more sanitary, depending on where you keep your paperclips.
