The result is a strong alcoholic drink, where the taste and aroma of the ingredients used are pronounced.

It is also worth considering that the cherry seeds contain poison, which is released in tiny amounts when the berries are insisted, so you need to remove all the bones from the cherry before cooking, but if you want, you can leave a dozen because they give the drink a special aftertaste that many people like.

The traditional version of cherry fruit

The best, according to experts, is obtained using vodka. It will require:

  • sweet overripe cherry - one kilogram;
  • granulated sugar - 500 grams;
  • half a liter of vodka.

Cooking:

In order for the cherry fruit liqueur to have a beautiful color of ripe pomegranate and tasty, it is necessary to choose ripe cherry berries. They are washed in cool water, trying not to stretch. Rotten specimens are taken, garbage is removed. In principle, many home winemakers do not wash berries, so they retain beneficial microorganisms. However, if the berry is heavily contaminated, then it must be washed. Especially if the cherry was purchased by hand.

The glass container is thoroughly washed, a layer of cherry is laid on the bottom. The berries are covered with six tablespoons of granulated sugar (possible with a slide). Then again comes a layer of cherries and again everyone is covered with sugar. So the layers alternate until the jar is filled to the very shoulders. To juice well began to stand out from the berries, they must be pierced with a toothpick. Sugar is put on the basis of what kind of wine you want to get. If sweet liquors are preferred, more sugar should be added. When sugar and cherry are placed in glass containers, they are poured with vodka until the beginning of the neck of the container. Do not fill the jar to the top, otherwise, as a result of fermentation, the contents simply overflow. The neck of a glass container is covered with gauze folded in several layers. Do not put on the cap. Cherry cordial cleaned in a dark place at room temperature. Three days later, the container is removed and its contents thoroughly mixed. This is necessary so that the sugar is completely dissolved in vodka. Then again removed for fermentation.

Cherry liquor produced according to this recipe at home should ferment for at least two months and this process should be constantly monitored. After a few weeks, the sugar will completely dissolve, and the filling should change its color. Initially, it will be pinkish and transparent, then it will become a rich cherry hue. When two months have passed, the cord is removed, filtered through a sieve and bottled. You can already immediately taste it. If the drink seems too strong, then it should be diluted with natural cherry juice. Before serving, the cherry filling should be very well cooled.

Strong liquor

To get a stronger drink at home, you can use alcohol diluted with water to a comfortable degree.

Would need:

  • a kilogram of ripe cherries;
  • 400 grams of sugar;
  • diluted alcohol - 600 ml.

Technology:

The pouring will turn out to be very aromatic, if you use cherries with stones for cooking. Therefore, the cherry should simply be washed, remove the rotten berries, put on paper towels and dry. It would be nice to pre-sunk it in the sun. If sunny days are not enough, then you can use the electric dryer for vegetables, berries, fruits. As soon as the cherry fruits lose some of their juice, they are poured into a jar and shook it so that the berries are densely packed. Then pour the cherry with diluted alcohol or vodka so that the alcohol covers the berries by 2 centimeters. Insist berries with alcohol for two weeks in a dark and warm place.

After this time, all the liquid is poured into a separate container, and the remaining cherry fruits are again poured with vodka or alcohol, removed in a warm dark place again for two weeks. Next, the resulting liquid is again poured into a separate container, the cherry is again poured with alcohol. Now you need to insist for two months. Then the contents are filtered, combined with the previous two fractions. Everything is thoroughly mixed and sugar is added. Its amount varies depending on how sweet you want to get the liquor. After all the actions, the cherry liquor is bottled, corked and removed to cool.

Without vodka and alcohol

Necessary components:

  • ripe cherries - 2 kg;
  • kilogram of sugar;
  • 250 ml of pure water.

If you use a simple recipe for cherry without vodka, you get a tasty alcoholic drink that looks more like homemade wine. Cherry is sorted, washed, pitted with a pin or a special device called a bone separator. The fruit is poured into a jar and add 200 grams of granulated sugar, then again cherry and sand again. The steps are repeated until the ingredients are finished. 250 ml of room temperature water are poured into the jar. The jar is filled to the shoulders, covered with gauze, left for three days. Shake the container every day so that the juice that stands out completely covers the cherry. As soon as fermentation starts, you need to put on a glove with a punctured finger on a jar or install a water seal. An ideal temperature for fermentation is considered to be 25-29 degrees.

When air bubbles cease to stand out from the seal, it is time to pour the product through a sieve or through a nylon cover with holes made. At this stage, only the cherry pieces should be cleaned from the liquor; a small amount of sediment will not hurt. The drink is again put in a warm place for two days. Now it is again filtered, but already more efficiently, through a strainer and several layers of gauze. It’s time to bottle the cherry. A home-made drink is ready to drink. If you do not plan to use it in the near future, then it is better to remove it in a cool dark place. Cherry liqueur without vodka can be stored for up to three years.

One-day quick liqueur

You can try to make cherry liqueur per day. It is perfect for women's gatherings, on its basis you can cook various desserts, cocktails. For cooking you will need:

  • frozen cherry berries (kilogram);
  • good moonshine (alcohol);
  • cherry twigs and leaves;
  • sugar - 700 grams;
  • liter of purified water.

Washed cherries, cherry leaves with sprigs, sugar, water are poured into a stainless steel pan. The drink will have a strength of about 25 degrees, if you want less strong, then you should add more water. Cook the mixture for about 10 minutes, then everything needs to be cooled. Then, syrup is filtered through several layers of gauze and moonshine or diluted alcohol is added to it. The drink is mixed, bottled and can already be consumed. However, if the cherry liquor stays a couple of weeks in a cool place, then it will become tastier.

The subtleties of manufacturing

How to choose berries?

Cherry is the main component for filling, so special requirements are placed on the berries. They should not be spoiled, as the taste of the drink from this will significantly deteriorate. Therefore, all berries are inspected for putrefactive areas. Cherry is better to take a ripe, dark burgundy color. There is still controversy over cherry pits. Many strongly suggest that you remove the seeds from the berries before you make cherry filling so that hydrocyanic acid does not harm your health. But other drink connoisseurs say that the bones give him an amazing aftertaste and a very pleasant astringency. Here everyone decides for himself, since the question is still open. Although from ancient times all the liquors, jam and stewed cherries were prepared using seeds.

Alcohol base

It is selected depending on the desired strength of the future drink. So you can use vodka, alcohol, moonshine, cognac, rum, brandy. But more often than not, they make vodka. Each alcoholic drink gives its own peculiar aftertaste and special aroma. First you need to prepare a liquor according to the classic recipe, and then experiment with taste gradually adding various ingredients, such as cinnamon, cloves, lemon or orange zest.

Fermentation

Sometimes cherries do not wander for a long time. If this process does not start, then a little unwashed raisins should be added to the cherry liquor, on the surface of which there are yeast bacteria that can start the fermentation process. You should not add yeast for fermentation, otherwise it will turn out just cherry mash.

It is impossible to compare the purchased liquor and your own, prepared according to the home recipe, with your own hands.
