Yeah definitely check on that recipe if you can find it. I've never had it and am curious to try it

I've tried it with grocery store cherries and it was only OK. Used it for ice cream topping, but I wouldn't make it that way again.

You've gotta have sour cherries, sometimes called wild cherries or chokeberries, I think. I've never had access to them, though.

OK, I checked the recipe I have and it calls for aging 4 to 6 MONTHS, not weeks. Also calls for "cheap bourbon".

This got my interest a little going and I remember my great grandfather making this stuff years ago so I called my mom to see if she knew anything about it. She didn't know the recipe he used but she did know that he used native wild cherries that grew out on his property. She also threw in that he used his own "homemade liquor" to make it. Never knew he made moonshine. Gotta find out more about that.
