Cherry Heering
Cherry Heering is a Danish liqueur made from cherries. It is often used in the creation of classic and contemporary cocktails. The liqueur is named after its creator, Peter F. Heering, who first produced it in 1818.
History[edit]
Cherry Heering was first produced in 1818 by Peter F. Heering, a Danish merchant and distiller. The liqueur quickly gained popularity and became a staple in many bars and restaurants around the world. It is known for its deep red color and rich, sweet flavor, which comes from the use of Stevnsbær cherries.
Production[edit]
The production of Cherry Heering involves the use of Stevnsbær cherries, which are known for their tart flavor. The cherries are crushed and mixed with spices and neutral grain spirit. The mixture is then aged in oak barrels for a minimum of three years, allowing the flavors to meld and develop.

Cherry Heering is a key ingredient in several classic cocktails, including the Singapore Sling and the Blood and Sand. It is also used in a variety of modern cocktails, adding a rich cherry flavor and deep red color.
