Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 180 day

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make cherry liqueur with alcohol at home? Prepare all the necessary ingredients. For a classic liqueur, you only need three ingredients: cherries, alcohol and sugar. Some liqueur recipes use herbs and fruits. Take well-ripe cherries.

2. STEP 2

   

   Wash the cherries under running water, remove twigs and rotten berries. Soak the cherries for a couple of hours in cold water to eliminate worms in the berries.

3. STEP 3

   

   Place the prepared berries in a glass jar, cover with sugar and leave for a day. During this time, the sugar will dissolve and the cherries will release juice.

4. STEP 4

   

   Fill the contents of the jar with alcohol, close the lid and leave in a dark place for 3 months. During this time, you can check the condition of the liqueur several times by stirring the berries. After 3 months, remove the berries; they can be used for baking or any desserts for adults.

5. STEP 5

   

   Strain the liqueur through cheesecloth to eliminate the possibility of any remaining cherry pulp getting into the liqueur. Pour the liquor into glass bottles and seal them with corks. Store the liqueur in a cool, dark place. Ideally, you should let the liqueur brew for about 3 more months. However, it can be served before this date. Women will especially like this drink. It also has aroma.

   Enjoy your tasting!
