Whether you’re in the mood for a popsicle, cherry cola float, or cheesecake bar, you’ll find something you love in this list of cherry recipes.
Summer is prime cherry season, and I’ve already been spitting out pits over here. If you’re looking for something more creative to do than eating these stone fruits straight, here are our favorite cherry recipes ideal for these hot months.
My fingers have already been stained a deep red this month trying to cut up cherries for my daughter to enjoy. She seems to know exactly which fruits are the messiest, chucking handfuls of cherries and blackberries off her high chair. That’s on me for not sticking to something simpler, but can you really blame me for wanting to let her enjoy one of the best parts of the season?
Now we have more cherries than we’d anticipated since they’ve proven to be less popular with her than the sweet strawberries, blueberries, and other fruits she eats like a vacuum cleaner.
That’s where these mouth-watering cherry recipes come in!
You could also try some of our other cherry recipes, including chocolate cherry cake or cherry chocolate chip waffles. But these felt like the most seasonally appropriate options. Especially when you’re trying to beat the summer heat, what sounds better than a float, popsicle, milkshake, or gin rickey?
