Drunken Cherries

This easy 3-ingredient recipe makes the booziest cherries ever. Soak the fruit for at least two weeks (or longer -- like WAY longer) for totally buzzed fruit and cherry infused liquor, that's perfect for your craft cocktails.

Instructions

  1. Rinse the cherries and pick out any bruised, soft or damaged fruit.
  2. Use a pair of kitchen sheers to trim the stems to about 1/2" long.
  3. Pack the cherries into a jar, filling it tightly and to the top.
  4. Use a funnel to fill the jar about 1/3 of the way with sugar.
  5. Fill the jar to the top with vodka and seal the lid on tightly.
  6. Shake and roll the jar in your hands until the sugar has dissolved.
  7. Place the jar in a cool dark spot for at least two weeks or longer (My friend Nola goes a full six months). Shake or roll the jar every so often a few times if you're going with a shorter soak and at least once a month if you're going for longer.
