Ingredients
- 2 cups cherries
- 2 cups sugar or sweetener like allulose
- 1 vanilla bean or 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 cups red wine vinegar
- Plain or fizzy water for serving
Instructions
- Chop the fruit coarsely.
- Combine the cut up fruit with the sugar or sweetener. Slice a vanilla bean lengthwise and scrape the seeds into the fruit mixture, then add the pod too (or add the extract). Let sit for 1 hour at room temperature.
- Mash the fruit to break it up some, then let it sit for another hour. At this point, a lot of the juices should have been released.
- Mash the fruit again. Let sit, covered, at room temperature, for 24 hours.
- Add the vinegar, stir, and let sit, covered and refrigerated for one week, making sure to stir it daily.
- After a week, strain the fruit and vanilla bean from the mixture and save the liquid in a sealed jar.
- To serve, measure 2-4 tablespoons of syrup into a glass, then top with 8 ounces (or to taste) of plain or sparkling water.
Notes
- Based on 1 ounce size serving. Calories will be overestimated since some of the ingredients are discarded.
