With sour cherries from your garden, you can make an infused vodka by simply submerging the fruit in the neutral alcohol. Let the cherries steep for at least a month, to create both a flavoured vodka and alcohol-soaked cherries to garnish cocktails with. Given that the preparation keeps in the fridge for months, you’ll be able to enjoy it long after cherry season ends!
