Cherry Tea

Cherry tea is a fruit tea with an intense sweet-tart cherry flavour. It is most commonly made from dried cherries, cherry skins or their extracts, sometimes blended with black tea or herbs. It is popular for its bold flavour and beautiful ruby-red colour. In the kitchen, it works well as a base for iced fruit teas, summer drinks or homemade fruit syrups. The brewed tea can be used as a liquid in cakes, chocolate desserts or sauces for red meat, where the cherry tartness beautifully balances the richness of the dish.
