A fun way to make your own cherry-infused liquor dessert drink. Tart cherries are the real star of this recipe. This is usually made in August and traditionally served with Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner. Warning: The cherries are very strong after a few months, so eat responsibly. Serve over ice with Sierra Mist or Sprite to cut the liquor strength. Liquor-soaked cherries are also very good over vanilla ice cream for a fun adult dessert.

Ingredients

2 cups pitted tart cherries (such as Door County cherries)
⅓ cup white sugar, or to taste
1 cup vodka, or as needed

Directions

Put cherries in a clean, 1-quart glass jar; add sugar. Fill the rest of the jar with vodka. Place lid on jar and shake. Cherries will float in the beginning and will settle in time.
Store jar in a cool, dark area for 1 to 4 months, shaking jar occasionally.

Recipe Tip

Use any liquor (rum, brandy, etc.) in place of the vodka if desired.
