Ingredients

800 g sour cherries
0.5 ½ lemon (s), untreated peel
400 g rock suar, brown
ml 1,400 vodka

Instructions

Wash the cherries and remove the stems.
Rinse the untreated lemon and cut the peel into strips.
Place the cherries, lemon peel strips, and brown rock sugar into a large glass jar with a tightly-fitting lid. Pour in the vodka until full. Seal tightly.
Store in a warm place (preferably on a windowsill) for 2 months to infuse.
Shake the jar every few days so the sugar dissolves completely.
Pour the mixture through a fine sieve or cheesecloth into a clean container, gently pressing the cherries to extract the liquid.
Transfer to clean bottles and seal. Let rest for 2 more weeks before serving.

Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
