Method

Syrup Base Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Cherries

    Wash the fresh cherries thoroughly under running water. Remove the stems and pits, then roughly chop the cherries.

    In a medium saucepan, combine the chopped cherries, granulated sugar, and water. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the sugar has dissolved.

    Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the cherries have softened and the syrup has thickened slightly.

    Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the lemon juice. Let the syrup cool completely before using.
