I first encountered Vodka Cherries in 2003 whilst working on assignment in Atlanta, Georgia, USA. I was at a bar where you could purchase a Vodka Cherry for $1! Theye are potent, they are awesome! I use them in trifles or vodka jelly shots!
Hints & Tips
- You must use Glace Cherries or Maraschino Cherries – fresh cherries or tinned cherries will not work.
- At Christmas time, I have often bought some nice empty jars and made jars of Vodka Cherries as gifts – they go down a treat!
- I use Vodka Cherries when making Kay’s Alcoholic Trifle!
