   How to make compote from frozen cherries? Prepare the necessary ingredients for this. You can freeze cherries yourself in the summer. To do this, you need to wash it, dry it and remove the seeds from it. Then lay it out on a board and put it in the freezer. When the berries freeze, you can pour them into bags. Or you can buy frozen cherries in the store - they are on sale all year round.

Amazing compote! I always freeze cherries for the winter for compotes, but usually I cook them from assorted berries. It’s even strange that I haven’t made compote from just cherries before) I had my doubts about lemon juice, because cherries themselves are sour. But after adding sugar, the taste of the compote evened out and became very harmonious. The compote is simply delicious, it quenches your thirst perfectly. It’s warm here now, it’s generally hot at home, so I want something tasty to quench my thirst. And it cooks quickly. I especially liked the fact that the compote is boiled for only five minutes and then infused. This preserves the maximum amount of vitamins, which is especially important in the fall. Thanks for the recipe!
