Wash, halve and pit the sour cherries and place the stones into a cheesecloth.
Place all ingredients, including the stones in cheesecloth, into a saucepan, bring to a boil and cook for 10-15 minutes.
Remove the cheesecloth and transfer the cherry mixture into a tight jar and turn it upside down to sterilize. Store the jar in a dark and cool area.
- Almond essence is a traditional ingredient in a cherry filling mix but using the fruit stones instead will also boost flavour.
