Ingredients

  • 2 pounds cherries, pitted
  • ½ cup ouzo
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice

Directions

1

Combine the ingredients in the pressure cooker and stir to dissolve the sugar a bit.

Lock on the lid and bring to pressure over high heat, about 4 minutes.

3

Immediately remove from the heat and let sit for 10 minutes to finish cooking.

4

With the steam vent pointed away from your face, gently release any remaining pressure.

5

Remove the lid.

6

If too moist, boil until the liquid is thickened and syrupy but still pourable, 2 to 3 minutes.

7

Refrigerate overnight, covered, before using.
