1
Prepare the Cherry Mixture
In a medium saucepan, combine the pitted cherries, bay leaves, and water. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and let cook for about 10 minutes until the cherries are softened.
2
Add the Acids
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the verjus and cider vinegar. Allow the mixture to cool slightly before straining it into a bowl, discarding the bay leaves and solids.
3
Season
Taste the mixture and add salt as desired to enhance the flavors.
4
Chill and Serve
Refrigerate the mixture for at least 30 minutes to chill. Serve as a refreshing drink or use as a unique cocktail base, garnished with additional cherries or a bay leaf.
