Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine the pitted cherries and water. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat.

  2. Reduce the heat to low and let the cherries simmer for about 20 minutes, or until they are soft and releasing their juices.

  3. Using a potato masher or the back of a spoon, mash the cherries in the saucepan to extract as much flavor as possible.

  4. Stir in the sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla extract until the sugar is completely dissolved.

  5. Allow the syrup to simmer for an additional 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it has thickened slightly.

  6. Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the cherry syrup cool to room temperature.

  7. Using a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth, strain the syrup into a clean glass jar or bottle, pressing down on the cherries to extract all the liquid.

  8. Seal the jar or bottle with a lid and store the cherry syrup in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
