Black Cherry & Tonic
Remix a classic Gin and Tonic with the subtle sweetness of black cherry to create a cocktail-hour hit.
HOW TO MAKE BLACK CHERRY SYRUP: Combine 1 cup sugar, 1 cup water and 1 cup fresh black cherries (de-stemmed, pitted, and halved) in a shallow pan and place on stove top over low to medium heat. Heat and stir to dissolve sugar. Simmer for 10-15 minutes or until cherries start to break down. Strain mixture through a fine mesh cone or cheesecloth. Bottle syrup and store in refrigerator for up to 10 days.
