Cherry & Amaretto

Cherry preserve with amaretto almond liqueur for a dessert-style spread on toast, pastries, or ice cream. The liqueur added marzipan-like depth to tart cherries.

Prince Edward Island Preserve Company made spirit preserves in New Glasgow, PEI, at the creamery Adam and Marsha Doiron now run. Cherries were the lead fruit while amaretto was imported.

This SKU is discontinued on the brand shop. Refrigerate opened jars.
