[Cz-L] Vishniak

My great-grandfather came to Canada and started a lucrative liquor business
in Montreal in 1901. One of the products that they manufactured and
exported
was Vishnik. I have a typical recipe if anyone would like to have it.
Yes, you can buy unpitted, fresh sour cherries, but it is a short season so
make
your Vishnik as soon as you find them in the fruit store.

Mimi,
To make Vishniak, you need sour cherries. Can you get them in the US?
The recipe: Usually equal amounts of sour cherries to equal amount of sugar,
placed in a glass jar and covered with muslin.
After about 2 weeks, Vishniak.
You could fortify the Vishniak with a glass of vodka.

Cheers

Arthur
