Ingredients:

  • 750 liters rye whiskey (does not need to be expensive)
  • 2 cups honey
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 (8 oz) jars maraschino cherries
  • 6 cinnamon sticks
  • 1 tbsp caraway seed

Directions:

  1. In a saucepan combine 1 cup water, honey, cherries, sliced orange,and caraway seeds.
  2. Bring to a simmer for 20 minutes, stirring often.
  3. Let cool and then put in a storable container.
  4. Add whiskey.
  5. Let sit for a week and then remove oranges. ( I let this steep for about 30 days.).
  6. I strain the caraway seeds out and remove the cherries as well once I move the liquer into bottles.
  7. My DMIL served a bowl of the fruit after dinner. Be careful- it packs a punch as I found out.the hard way. LOL.
