Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- Combine the cherries, sugar, and 1 cup of water in a medium saucepan and heat over high heat. Bring to a boil and reduce the heat. Gently crush the cherries with a potato masher, then simmer the mixture over low heat until slightly reduced and dark red, about 10 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes.
- Strain the mixture through a sieve into a heatproof container, pressing down on the cherries to extract all the juice. You should have about 1 3/4 cups of syrup. Let cool for 30 minutes.
- Combine the cherry syrup with the limeade and lime juice in a pitcher and stir well. Yield: 3 tbsp.
- For serving:
Stir in either 3 cups of plain water if you prefer a still drink, or mix equal parts of the drink with seltzer water in a glass. Serve over ice with frozen cherries and lime wedges.
