Better brewing through science.
Unlike traditional cherry bounce, this one uses dries cherries and honey. This makes the whole process much faster. Be sure to use sour cherries. If you don't, you'll end up with cough syrup!
Warning: You have to really like cherry to enjoy this one...or mix with coke for a spiked cherry coke. I also enjoy it half and half with sparkling water.
