Cherry Juice

Cherries! Gramma has an abundance of cherries every year and my kids are always picking them. So this year we put their love of picking to good use and made cherry juice from them.

Ingredients:
~ 8 cups of cherries
~ 10 cups of water
~ 1 1/2 cups of sugar

Directions:
~ Add all of it to a large pot. Bring to Boil
~ Simmer for 30 minutes
~ Try and mash the cherries a bit while they simmer
~ Cool them down
~ Put in a fine colander and mash cherries (Keep your juice from before too!)
~ Leave the mash dip for 30 mins
~ Take all your Juice and put in large jar or pitcher. Add more sugar or water to taste.

**Usually the ratio is 8 cups of cherries to 10 cups of water**
