Cherry Coke Syrup Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 cup water
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup cherry juice (freshly squeezed or store-bought)
Instructions:
- Prepare Ingredients:
- Gather all the ingredients needed for the syrup: water, granulated sugar, and cherry juice.
- Combine Water and Sugar:
- In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup of water and 1 1/2 cups of granulated sugar. Place the saucepan over medium heat.
- Dissolve Sugar:
- Stir the mixture frequently until the sugar completely dissolves into the water. This usually takes about 2-3 minutes.
- Add Cherry Juice:
- Once the sugar has dissolved, pour in 1/2 cup of cherry juice into the saucepan. Stir well to combine.
- Simmer:
- Allow the mixture to come to a gentle simmer. Lower the heat and let it simmer for another 5 minutes. This helps to infuse the cherry flavor into the syrup.
- Cool and Strain:
- Remove the saucepan from heat and let the syrup cool to room temperature. ๐ก๏ธ
- Once cooled, strain the syrup through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove any cherry pulp or particles. This will give you a smooth syrup.
- Store in a Jar:
- Transfer the cherry coke syrup into a clean, airtight jar or bottle. This makes it easy to store and pour.
- Refrigerate:
- Keep the syrup refrigerated to maintain its freshness and flavor. It should last for several weeks when stored properly. โ๏ธ

- When you’re ready to enjoy a glass of delicious Cherry Coke, simply add 2 to 3 tablespoons of the syrup to a glass of regular Coca-Cola. ๐ฅ
- Mix and Enjoy:
- Give it a gentle stir to mix the syrup with the soda. Watch as the coke transforms into a delightful cherry-infused drink!
