A summer favourite of Turkish tables, sour cherry sherbet is made by letting pitted sour cherries release their juice in just minutes in a pressure cooker. Lightly sweetened with honey and free of refined sugar, this drink stands out as a heart-friendly cooler.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Prepare the cherries

10 min

Pit the sour cherries.

2

Pressure-cook

5 min

Put the pitted cherries and water in the pressure cooker and close the lid; once it starts hissing, lower the heat and cook for 5 minutes.

3

Let the pressure release

10 min

Turn off the heat and let the cooker rest unopened for 10 minutes.

4

Strain and sweeten

5 min

Stir the honey and lemon juice into the strained liquid and serve over ice.

Reminder

Don't leave the cherries in the pressure cooker too long; the short cooking time lets them release their juice without falling apart.

Editor's Note Editörün Notu

Adding the honey together with the lemon juice makes the sweet-tart balance more pronounced; you can halve the honey if you prefer it less sweet.

Çekirdekleri çıkarmak tarifte dediğinden çok daha uzun sürdü, üstelik düdüklüde 5 dakika pişirince vişneler neredeyse tamamen dağıldı; bu kadar kısa sürede bu kadar çok dağılması normal mi?

Evet, vişne düdüklüde çok hızlı yumuşar, 5 dakika bu meyve için aslında yeterliden fazla; isterseniz süreyi 3 dakikaya indirip tanelerin bütünlüğünü daha iyi koruyabilirsiniz.
