Method

  1. Remove the pits from the cherries and cut them in half.

  2. Ensure that the flesh of the fruit is exposed.

  3. Place the cherries in a jar, making sure not to pack them tightly.

  4. Pour the vodka over the cherries, filling the jar.

  5. Seal the jar tightly and store it in a dark place for a minimum of 2 weeks, but preferably up to 6 months.

  6. After the desired time has passed, open the jar and strain the contents.

  7. If you have a fine-mesh strainer, use it; otherwise, line an ordinary strainer with cheesecloth or a coffee filter.

  8. Set the strainer over a large bowl for easy pouring later.

  9. Slowly pour the vodka mixture through the strainer, allowing the fruit to sit and release liquid for about an hour.

  10. Stir the fruit occasionally and press it gently to help the liquid pass through.

  11. Taste the vodka and add sugar if you prefer a sweeter after-dinner liqueur. Omit the sugar for a sharper taste.

  12. Pour or ladle the finished liqueur into a decorative bottle.
