Sour Cherry Syrup

Sour cherry syrup is a sweet, deeply colored syrup made from sour cherry juice or concentrate, sweetened with sugar. It has a characteristic tart, full flavor that sets it apart from sweet cherry varieties. In the kitchen, it is used as an ingredient in desserts, ice creams, pancakes, and milkshakes. It pairs wonderfully with yogurts, cream cheese fillings, and whipped cream cakes. It is also used to prepare non-alcoholic drinks and lemonades. Thanks to the natural acidity of sour cherries, it adds a fresh fruity note to dishes. Once opened, store in the refrigerator.
