And so here’s the combination: cherries and pink pepper! Super refined. Here is the recipe.

Add sugar and lemon juice, mix well. Put the pot on the fire and bring to a boil.

Let it simmer over low heat and stirring occasionally until it reaches the right consistency: putting a teaspoon on a saucer and cooled it becomes thick and creamy, the cherries still whole. A crazy perfume!

We close the jars and proceed with the sterilization.
