Happy 4th of July
just stayed off the road today and made an onion casserole & fried fish and had a glass of Cherry Bounce to celebrate our great country and its Freedom Day

I got this recipe from Cooks.com (I think): is it anything like what you know of?
CHERRY BOUNCE
4 c. bourbon
3-4 c. sugar
4 c. Bing cherries
4 months to ferment
Cover to ferment and set in a dark, cook place. Liquid is good to drink and cherries are good on ice cream.
------------
I also saw other similar recipes that mentioned fermentation time as anything from 1-3 months. Can it really last that long? lol

for years I just have put washed bing cherries (or any sweet cherries) stemmed but not seeded
into a very clean quart jar and
poured over the cheapest plain vodka
(like you get in a bar drink if you don't ask for a certain brand)
sealed....hide away in a dark place and a note that says open in 3 months
(providing you dated it on the beginning day) say July 1 to Oct 1....
The cherries lose their red color because the juice goes into the bounce..
.
you could eat the cherries even if they are not a red color or possibly put into a cobbler
no clue we always munched on them 'cause after a few glasses of bounce
