Notes

  • If you can find fresh cherries you can use those rather than frozen.  For this recipe, I think that frozen works just fine because we aren't really doing anything with the cherries except extracting flavor. 
  • This syrup would be excellent on or in any number of things!  Teas, coffees, sodas, ice cream, pancakes, you name it! 
  • You can get fancy with your vanilla extract here and you can add more if you want more vanilla flavor.
