Freeze the unopened can of fruit until frozen solid, at least 18 hours. Submerge the unopened can in hot water 1 to 2 minutes.
Open the can, and pour any thawed syrup into the workbowl of a food processor. Remove the other end of the can, and turn the fruit out onto a cutting surface. Cut into chunks and add to the workbowl. Process, pulsing on and off until smooth. Add bourbon and process to blend thoroughly.
