Zubereitung von Sour Cherry Syrup
- Gently rinse 2 cups of fresh sour cherries and remove stems.
- Puree the cherries in a blender or food processor in small batches until smooth.
- Line a fine-mesh sieve with cheesecloth and place over a large bowl. Pour the cherry puree into the sieve, pressing firmly with a spatula to extract as much juice as possible. You should have approximately 1 1/2 cups of juice.
- In a large saucepan, combine the cherry juice (1 1/2 cups), 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup water, and 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves completely.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 10 minutes, skimming off any foam that rises to the surface with a slotted spoon.
- Reduce the heat to low, and continue to simmer, stirring occasionally and skimming as needed, until the syrup thickens to a syrupy consistency, about 45-50 minutes. The syrup should coat the back of a spoon.
- Remove from heat and strain the syrup through a fine-mesh sieve lined with cheesecloth into a clean jar or bottle.
- Let the syrup cool completely before storing in the refrigerator. It will keep for up to 2 weeks.
