Cherry Blossom

[Steve Petrone]

Macerate 3 or 4 bing cherries with 1/2 teaspoon of sugar. Add to shaker with 2 ounces of Bacardi Light Rum, a squeeze of fresh lime juice and ice. Shake and strain into a tall glass with ice. Top with soda or tonic.

Made this for myself during my very long (!) Chinese cook day, topped with tonic. It was great!

Glad you enjoyed this. The day I put this together, I had bing cherries just staring at me. Rum was a good match.

Guess I could google it, but does Macerate mean to muddle (mash together)

 

[Steve Petrone]

Thats the idea...soak...mush or mash.

A lighter choice-compared to the Cherry Bomb.
