CHERRY CORDIALS
This Christmas, skip the boxed chocolate-covered cherries sitting on store shelves. The taste of these homemade confections just can't be beat. Plus, they're a snap to make with only three basic ingredients-you simply soak the cherries in brandy, melt the chocolates and dip!-Dorothy Bayard, Hubertus, Wisconsin

CHERRY CORDIAL RECIPE
Summery, sweet, and with the faintest touch of spice, this cherry cordial tastes lovely when swirled into sparkling water and served over ice. It's simple to make, and you can leave the pits in the cherries, too. This recipe is developed in partnership with the Northwest Cherry Growers..

Steps:
- Finely grate the lemon peel into a small bowl, avoiding any bitter white pith. Then slice the lemon in half cross-wise, and then squeeze its juice into a separate bowl. Leave both the finely grated lemon peel and the juice on the countertop while you prepare the other ingredients.
- Dump the cherries into a large, heavy pot. Next, scoop lemon zest into the pot over the cherries. Drop in the cardamom pods and ginger. Then, pour in the water.
- Bring the ingredients to a boil over medium-high heat, and then immediately turn down the heat to medium-low. Continue simmering the cherries and spices together over medium-low heat for 10 minutes.
- Arrange a fine-mesh sieve over a bowl or wide-mouthed pitcher, and then line it with cheesecloth or butter muslin. Pour the cherries into the lined sieve, allowing the juice flow into the bowl. Press the cherries with a wooden spoon to extract as much juice as you can, and then discard the spent cherries, preserving the juice.
- While the juice is still hot, stir in the sugar until it dissolves completely, and then stir in the lemon juice.
- Pour the finished cordial into a jars or flip-top bottles, and seal them. Let it cool to room temperature, and then transfer it to the fridge where it will keep about 6 weeks. Alternatively, freeze the cordial in glass jars (allowing at least 2 inches of head space) up to 6 months.
- Spoon 2 to 4 tablespoons into a glass, and then fill with sparkling water.

- Stir together cherries, sugar, water, cardamom pods, orange zest, cinnamon sticks, and ginger in a medium saucepan; bring to a boil over medium-high, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to medium; simmer, stirring occasionally, until cherries are tender and liquid is a thin syrup consistency, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Set a fine-mesh strainer over a large heatproof bowl. Pour cherry mixture through strainer into bowl, pressing cherries using the back of a spoon to extract remaining juices. Discard solids. Stir orange juice into strained cherry mixture. Let stand at room temperature, uncovered, until cooled to room temperature, about 30 minutes. To enjoy, pour a ¼-cup serving over an ice-filled cocktail glass and top up with tonic water, or add a splash to a glass of chilled sparkling white wine.
