Ingredients

How to make it

  • Drain your jar of cherries.
  • Pour the vodka into the jar to the top.
  • Replace the jar top and seal well.
  • Place the cherries into your refrigerator for at least three days and serve.
  • *These make a great Hostess gift or holiday gift for those who enjoy having alcoholic beverages. You can save the leftover syrup to make cakes or cupcakes. You can even use the juice to make virgin beverages such as "Shirley Temples" or add the juice to 7Up or Ginger Ale.
  • I have purchased huge jars of cherries at stores such as Smart N' Final, let the vodka sit in the jar for a month and then spoon out the cherries into one pint canning jars and handed them out as gifts. My friends who drink and received these always asked for more!

    These are fun. My Aunt used to make a similar treat with Wisconsin Door County cherries, but she would can them. After 6 months or so, they had a real bite to them!! When she passed away we all took a jar of her leftovers to enjoy.

    How cool! I've got to try this! I'm thinking about taking them to a party, but it would be hard to keep the kids out of them, so maybe not!

    My Grandfather & Father used to make these...I still have a jar in my refrigerator that's 25 years old! And although it sounds horrible to eat something so old, they are still delicious...Better than ever! 2 or 3 gives you quite a buzz! :)
