Ingredients
1 cup bourbon
2 tablespoons sugar
4 ounces dried (no oil added) cherries (3/4 cup)
Preparation
Bring bourbon and sugar to a gentle simmer in a small saucepan over low heat. (Watch carefully, since bourbon may ignite.) Simmer, stirring, until sugar dissolves.
Pour bourbon syrup over cherries in a 12-ounce glass jar. Let stand overnight to macerate.
