Ingredients:
1 pound fresh cherries
1 cup brandy
3/4 granulated sugar
3/4 cognac
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Preparation
Rinse the cherries in cold water.
Pit cherries.
Place in a heatproof jar and cover with brandy (filling roughly 2/3 of the jar so there's room for more liquid). Cover the jar, but do not seal it.
Leave out for several hours, preferably overnight.
In a heavy saucepan over medium heat bring the sugar, cognac, and lemon juice to a simmer for ten minutes. Pour the brandy from the cherry jar into the saucepan and stir in. Once blended, pour all the liquid over the cherries in the jar(s) and seal.
Allow to stand for one month before use.
