History

I love the combination of full, tart cherries and fennel and anise. This drink does an amazing job of being potently sweet, herbal, salty, and tart all in the same glass. An incredible umami factor to this drink.

*Canned Bing Cherries: •2 pounds Bing cherries, •4 cups water, •1 1/2 cup – 2 cups sugar, •vanilla beans


1: Pit cherries
2: Combine the water and sugar in a large saucepan. Stir and bring to a boil to dissolve the sugar; keep hot
3: Stuff as many cherries as you can into each jar; ~16-20 cherries in each 250 mL jar. Fill to 2 cm below the rim
4: Add vanilla bean
5: Fill each jar with the hot syrup, stopping 1 cm from the rim of the jar. With a clean, hot, wet cloth, wipe the rims of the jars and place the sealers and lids on top. Tighten with your hands
6: Process in a boiling water bath for 15 minutes
7: Remove from the water bath, let cool, and listen for the pops. To let the full flavors develop let the jars rest a few weeks.


laerm commented on 12/30/2014:

Missing the Bing cherry action, but having some similarly processed and canned cherries, I figured I'd give this one a go. I must say, very impressive. Granted I love Pernod, but this is one of the few drinks I have had with it where it seems to take a supporting role. Really good, definitely going to impress some friends with this one.


Feingold

2 oz Brandy
1⁄2 oz Orange cordial
1 bsp Cherry Liqueur, Sangue Morlacco
1 Cherry, Luxardo (muddled)
2 ds Bitters (1 dash aromatic, 1 dash cherry bitters)
Instructions

Muddle cherry in liquid ingredients, shake, double strain over cracked ice, garnish with two more brandied cherries on a pick with an orange flag.

Notes

To make an orange cordial: peel a large orange and combine the peels in a small bowl with enough sugar to cover them completely. Cover and let macerate overnight, occasionally stirring. Stir in the juice from the orange. Strain liquid off the peels and bottle.

History

A craftish take on the cherry smash known in Wisconsin as a Brandy Old Fashioned. A barspoon of Ramazzotti works here too.

  • A little too sweet for my liking, the flavours are a bit miss-matched, which starts herbally and ends smoky. Might be better if made with dry vermouth instead.
