Add the sweet aroma and gentle tartness of red cherries to baked goods, desserts, and beverages. Mix it with soda for homemade cherry cola, or use it to create other cherry-inspired drinks. This cherry extract is excellent for baking—especially in chocolate cakes and fruitcakes—and works well in cherry sauces, syrups, and candies. Like our other extracts, it’s gluten-free, and when stored properly with a secure cap, it can keep for a year or more while maintaining its flavor in both baked and frozen recipes.
