Description

250g approx net weight / 20% ABV

Cocktail enthusiasts, this is for you. We've brought back maraschino cherries that are actually soaked in alcoholic maraschino. It's a dose of tradition with a modern twist.

These sweet cherries are infused in our Maraschino liqueur, itself fermented and distilled from cherries and native quandongs. We add a lick of sugar and a dash of almond oil to the liqueur before infusing this 'pickling liquid' into the heart of every cherry. The cherries are macerated for several weeks and will continue to develop in flavour while they're in the jar.

These are stemless cherries. Each jar contains approximately 50% cherries to 50% alcoholic pickling liquid. Please be mindful that despite our best efforts there may occasionally be pits inside, so take care.

Contains precisely 0.0% artificial colours, flavours and preservatives. Vegan friendly (we don't use any animal products nor processes throughout). Gluten free.

Limited Stock

Due to the long-winded nature of the Maraschino production process, our Maraschino Cherries are made in very small batches. If enough people hear about them, there may not be any left soon!

Giving a gift?

As a neat and somewhat quirky addition, why not include a custom gift note on a Possum Greeting Card for an extra $5?

Flavour is spot on, kept in the fridge after opening and used in cocktails, seemed to have crystallized…. Should I microwave??

Hey G.P. Glad you like them! They don't need to be refrigerated actually. If they have crystallised, try dunking the (closed) jar in some warm water for a few minutes :)
