Directions

1. Sterilize a large mason jar and add cherries and spices.

2. Heat vinegar in a small saucepan. Just before boiling, remove from heat and pour over cherries. Let cool completely and then seal and let sit at least 24 hours or up to 4 weeks.

3. When desired flavor is reached, strain out fruit and spices. Pour liquid into a saucepan and add sugar. Bring to a boil until sugar dissolves. Pour into jar, let cool, and refrigerate for up to 4 months. Serve with sparkling water over ice and enjoy!
