Cherries

Cherries are a true delight—juicy, sweet, and with just the right amount of tartness.

Cherries aren’t just delicious; they’re a flavor powerhouse. With a deep, rich sweetness and just the right amount of tartness, they add a bold fruitiness to everything they touch. Whether it’s sauces, salads, or a savory glaze, cherries bring a unique balance that works wonders in my botanical hot sauces. Their natural sweetness pairs beautifully with spices and herbs, taming the heat while adding depth and complexity to every bite. It’s a bit like biting into summer—dark, juicy, and oh-so satisfying.

But here’s the real kicker: cherries are packed with antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties that can help with muscle recovery, reduce inflammation, and even promote better sleep. So, you’re not just indulging in a sweet treat, you’re also giving your body a little extra care with every bite.

For me, adding cherries is about more than just flavor—it’s about creating a perfect harmony of sweet, tart, and healthy in one delicious experience.

"How do I choose flavors? I really don’t know. I started off with apricot because I like apricots. Then it becomes a game to see what other fruits would work. My wife likes strawberries, so I did some strawberry. It just comes to me."
