What are you in For!
Alright, I might be overdoing cherries. But I love cherries and when I make edible drinks, cherries are always my first choice!
As the name suggests, drunken cherries are cherries, oozing with your favourite alcohol (mostly rum or vodka), covered in your favourite sweet condiments!

When it comes to soaking fruits in some liquor, I always prefer a fruity one. If you are soaking strawberries for some cocktail, a berry flavored vodka is a nice choice. For Maraschino cherries, I am using Passionfruit flavored Rum (Malibu).
