Cherry Vodka
2.5 Cups of Cherries
12.7 ounces of Vodka
5 ounces of Simple Syrup*
2-6 drops of Lemon extract
Simple Syrup
• One part water
• Two parts sugar
On medium heat—slowly heat the mixture of water and sugar—stirring frequently to ensure the mixture doesn’t boil. When the sugar is completely dissolved remove from heat and put aside.
(If possible use a double boiler—it is easier).
The mixture can be sealed and kept for several months. You can also use Brown sugar or a Light colored honey in place of sugar
Vodka Cherry preparation
• In a quart jar, add cherries that have been pitted and cut in half.
• Add vodka and water to cover cherries
• Tightly cover contents in jar and let cherries soak for 2-3 weeks
• SHAKE DAILY !!
• Filter the contents thru cheesecloth first, then thru a coffee filter.
• Add the Simple syrup and lemon extract to the remaining filtered liquid
• Top off with distilled water bringing the total volume to 25.4 ounces.

The cherry Vodka recipe really sounds delicious mom thinks. She says yummi :-)
The photo sure looks pretty but Mom doesn't drink and neither do us dogs so we will just enjoy looking at it.
Cherry vodka, hummmmmm, Mommy is running to the store right now! (If she's smart, she'll buy 2 bottles. She sure could use it right about now.)

Hi Laika! Thanks for stopping by to say hello!
Yes! Definitely buy TWO or three!
sure sounds good. I'm a lightweight when it comes to alcohol and for some reason vodka hits me harder and quicker than anything.
You could probably use blueberries or raspberries! Thanks for popping by!
