Ingredients

  • 2 lb fresh or thawed frozen sour cherries* (1 qt), stemmed ⓘ
  • 1 cup fresh lemon juice ⓘ
  • 3/4 to 1 cup sugar ⓘ
  • 1 1/2 cups vodka (optional) ⓘ
  • 2 to 3 cups chilled sparkling water ⓘ
  • Garnish: fresh sour cherries with stems

Instructions

  1. Blend cherries (including pits) in a blender at low speed until skins have broken down enough to brightly color liquid (some of pits will be coarsely chopped). Pour through a sieve into a 2-quart pitcher, pressing on and discarding solids. Add lemon juice and sugar (to taste), stirring until sugar is dissolved.
  2. Pour 3 tablespoons vodka (if using) into each of 8 tall (10-ounce) glasses filled with ice. Add 1/2 cup cherry lemonade to each and top off with sparkling water.
  3. *We used IQF (Individually Quick Frozen) cherries from Friske Orchards (231-599-2604), in Charlevoix, Michigan.
