Without these proper cherries, a Manhattan (the cocktail) would be unthinkable (they soak up some of the bourbon and are a tasty treat waiting for you at the bottom of the glass). And I've managed to get a few of my friends hooked on them. They're not cheap, and you won't find them at Bevmo or Total Wine, but they're worth it. Allow yourself to be engrossed in the experience. 2 oz. favorite non-sugary bourbon (Maker's)br>1 oz. sweet (red) vermouthbr>2 dashes of ang 2 of these insanely delicious cherries bittersbr> br>Gently stir over large crushed ice and serve on the rocks, or strain into a chilled martini glass if you're feeling fancy. br>br>br>br>br>br>br>br>br>br>br>br>have 8 or 9 of them and call your parents br>br>enjoy br>br>enjoy br>br>enjoy.
These are the most authentic and delicious maraschino cherries on the market. br>br>I didn't realize how much I was missing until I had a few in a Disney World bar, of all places. However, regular "maraschino cherries" (found on sundaes and the like) are nothing compared to these scarlet red sugar balls. Those cherries have been bleached white and then candy-colored. Apples are red and soaked in sugar syrup with artificial flavoring. These are a deep burgundy, almost black color. It's sweet, but not in the same way that regular sugar syrup is. They live in a thick marasca liqueur (which is delicious on its own as a cocktail mixer). They're crunchy but not overly so, and they don't get soggy like some other syrup-based treats. fruit that has been poached It has the flavor of a cherry, but it isn't your typical cherry. Nothing else compares to it in terms of flavor! br>br>Of course, the downside is that they're absurdly expensive as a garnish. However, if you're going to spend the time garnishing your drinks in the first place, you might as well go all out on quality and have something truly unique. br>br>I'm sure there are other uses for these, such as baking or making ice cream, but I only use them for grown-up purposes. up with sweets.
Review has been updated: I'll admit that I wasn't overly impressed at first because I'm not a big fan of cherries. However, having recently participated in a side-by-side comparison, I can attest to the fact that Wow, cherries from the grocery store, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow There isn't a comparison that can be drawn. They're 'all of the above, plus a cherry on top. ' br>br>I bought them for my sister, who enjoys Old Fashioneds (which aren't really my cup of tea, or whiskey, for that matter). I thought she had used furniture polish by accident the first time she made one for me. Or that she was attempting to poison me (which I doubted). We switch drinks when the other isn't looking because our political views are so diametrically opposed). But where was I? br>br>But I digress, where was I? Cherries, to be sure. br>br>Every Old Fashioned recipe I looked up, as well as the majority of the recipe reviews, stated unequivocally that these cherries were the ONLY acceptable cherries, and that an Old Fashioned would not be a true Old Fashioned without them! I was led to believe that just one bite of these delectable, savory morsels would have me writhing in ecstasy, a near religious experience. Having been persuaded that these were the 'cherries of the gods,' I swallowed my pride and paid the absurd price for a jar of these purportedly magical, life-changing cherries. I was looking forward to this jar of special sweet little fruits delighting my senses (assuming I had any sense at all). br>br>I couldn't contain my joy when they arrived (very well packaged)! I was barely able to get from the mailbox to my house before tearing the lid off the jar with my greedy claws. And (drum roll please). Meh. It was a bit of a letdown. br>br>In fairness, I should mention that I have the palate of a ravenous wolverine, so perhaps my tastebuds aren't sophisticated enough to detect subtle, if not mind-blowing, differences. br>br>Perhaps they were overhyped to the point where I had unreasonable/unrealistic expectations? Perhaps I had expected a life-changing revelation after spending so much money on a jar of cherries. Indeed, it's possible that my level of excitement was such that I expected to see the Gods and commune with nature. Or, more likely, I'm just a complete moron. br>br>Well, I guess life isn't a jar of cherries after all. At least, that's how I feel. Good luck with your meal!.
My oh my! Heaven on earth for cherries! Not "fake-tasting," but exquisite taste y" and "overpowered" by an aftertaste of sugar The syrup, too, is delicious. Everything should have cherries in it! Salads with pasta and chicken! Iced tea (with a dash of natural syrup added and stirred in)! Omelets! You get my drift. I submit to the best; I am a convert. And what exactly are those red and green cherry-like things sold in supermarkets? Those aren't real cherries, are they? This one is for real if you truly love cherries. Try them! Your lips will smile, small birds will sing sweeter songs, and the world will be a kinder place.
The lid was dented and the container was leaking when it arrived. Because the item isn't returnable, there isn't a replacement option.
It's so costly!! But it's so tasty! For the ultimate old fashioned, cherries are a must.
OMG. If you enjoy a good cocktail, add one (or two) to your cart and check out as soon as possible. I bought these as a gift for my husband, and all I can say is WOW! If you don't order these right away, you won't know what you're missing out on. I'm not a fan of red or green maraschino cherries from the supermarket. In my opinion, they are disgusting and unfit to eat. These, on the other hand, do not last long in our home. You can use them on just about anything you'd use the grocery store variety on. If you're anything like me, you'll find yourself eating them straight from the jar because they're that good. We were teased by relatives for spending more than $20. On a small jar of cherries, you can spend up to 00. That is, until we (grudgingly) shared them with each other. They now fully comprehend why we have no reservations about spending the funds. The jar is well-filled; it isn't entirely made up of syrup; there are some cherries in there as well. Don't buy them, and don't try them either. That means there will be more for us!.
