I’m a bit of an evangelist when it comes to homemade cocktail cherries. They’re far, far superior to those red things that come in jars.

- 1 bottle (750 ml) of bourbon whiskey
- 8 grams of decarbed cannabis
- 2 pounds (910 g) pitted fresh cherries
PREPARATION
- Infuse the whiskey with the cannabis following the instructions on page 34.
- Place the pitted cherries in a large mason jar, then cover with the infused whiskey.
- Store the jar in a cool, dark place, such as a cellar or refrigerator, for 1 month, shaking the jar daily.
- Don’t be afraid to store these outside the fridge at cellar temperature: nothing bad will happen if you do.
- Use as called for in cocktails and mocktails.
