It’s a great question I don’t have a good answer to. I relied on some external sites for research when I made this video, which may have been wrong. I did try it myself, I had one batch that was fine and one bottle that fermented. I think there are probably two issues with my directions in the video for long term storage. One is likely that the cherries need to be blanched (not just washed) and the syrup needs to be hot when it goes in (to kill surface yeast). And the second is canning, as you mentioned, to keep the jar itself sterilized.
Love that! Going to try this soon :) keep sharing please… I’m subscribed to your channel! 😀
Thank you!!
Amazing and such a simple recipe for that deliciousness
Thanks for taste testing!
Will they keep for 6 months in the fridge without preserving them in a water bath?
