Make Cherry Bombs

Steps
- Open and empty the syrup from a jar of cherries. Leave about 1/4 of an inch of syrup at the bottom of the jar.
- Fill the jar with Everclear.
- Close the jar and put in refrigerator.
- Let sit at least 24 hours (the longer the better).
- Pop a cherry in your mouth and enjoy!
Tips
- Other types of alcohol may work.
- Mark the jar of your fixed cherries.
- If you use a larger jar of cherries, leave some more syrup to help the color.
- Add red hot candies if you would like.
- Do not give cherry bombs to children.
Warnings
- The longer they sit the more potent they get. Do not eat too many!
