How to Make Cherry Currant Sweet And Sour Sauce

  1. In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup maraschino cherry juice, 1/4 cup white vinegar, and 1/2 cup cherry currant jelly.
  2. Stir over moderate heat, stirring frequently, until the jelly is completely melted and smooth.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon cornstarch and 1/4 cup cold water until smooth.
  4. Slowly whisk the cornstarch slurry into the sauce.
  5. Continue to cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency (about 1-2 minutes).
  6. If the sauce is too thick, add 1-2 tablespoons of water at a time, stirring until you reach the desired consistency.
