Ingredients:

  • 1 quart ripe firm black bing cherries
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 cup white vinegar
  • 1 cup Kümmel spirits
  • How to do it:

    Rinse the cherries in cold water and drain. The stems may be left on.

    Add the cherries and sugar in a 1 quart jar. Add equal amounts of vinegar and Kümmel. There must be enough liquid to cover the cherries.

    Put the lid on the jar and add the screw cap. Turn to seal loosely. Store in a cool dark place for up to six months.

    Yields 1 quart.
