A lip-smacking, delicious force to be reckoned with, Suius Cherry celebrates the big, bold flavour of the Bing cherry and the sun-dappled Osoyoos (“Suius”) summer season in British Columbia. Boasting a complementary set of ingredients, this extract is at turns aromatic, bitter, sweet and savoury. 

Beverage recommendations:
 Suius Cherry plays a dynamic role in a variety of cocktails, including the classic “Sazerac” as a bitters replacement. Its rich ruby red colour adds depth to a cocktail’s appearance, while the cherries add a natural sweetness to carry rather bitter ingredients on the palate. Suius Cherry is an ideal match for rich spirits, such as whisk(e)y (Bourbon, American, Canadian and/or Scotch), slow-aged rum and brandy. 

Cooking recommendations: 
Suius Cherry brings a complex aromatic spice that takes pride of place in sweet applications. Use it as a replacement for vanilla extract in baked cakes, cookies, frozen desserts, and sweet sauces. It also works well as a flavour enhancer for savory dressings, sauces and marinades.
