Yield 1 quart

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 cups fresh cherries, washed and dried
1/3 cup granulated sugar
peel of 1 lemon
3 cups Bourbon (or enough to cover)

Steps:

  • Place the cherries in a 1 quart glass container, being careful not to crush the fruit.
  • Add the sugar and the lemon peel.
  • Fill the container with the bourbon.
  • Seal the lid and gently shake the jar, or move it around the counter to distribute the alcohol and sugar evenly.
  • The sugar will continue to dissolve over time.
  • Place the cordial in a cool, dark place for 2 months to allow the liquor to be infused with the flavor.
  • Jump start the process by placing the container on a sunny windowsill for the 1st two weeks.
  • The fluctuating temperatures of the daytime sun and the cool evenings will speed the flavor infusion.
