Cerise Noir (Bourbon & Cherry)

Written By Jessica Savidge

Are you ready for Pink Drinks? It’s that time of year again - love is in the air and cocktails are pink! Valentine’s Day cocktails are always fun, but really, these pretty pink cocktails are delightful no matter the occasion. 

This cocktail uses a Jam for a sweetener. It fulfills all of my fantasies for a dark chocolate covered cherry bourbon drink. You can play around with the cocktail ratios to get a different tasting drink every time!

PINK BOURBON COCKTAIL

  • 1oz Bourbon 

  • 1oz Maraschino Liqueur (Cherry Liqueur)

  • 1oz Tart Cherry Juice

  • 0.5 oz Chocolate Liqueur (The Light Creme De Cacao)

  • A few dashes of Chocolate Bitters

  • 1 tbs of Cherry Jam/Preserves

  • Chocolate Covered Cherries (For Garnishing)

Add ice to a shaker and give it a good mix to really break down those preserves and incorporate all of the ingredients. Double strain into a coup and garnish with a dark chocolate cherry (extra, but oh so delicious)!
