Cherry pickle

Cherry pickle is spicy but on the sweeter side.

I love pickling fruits but this was completely a new one for me.

These red rubies were almost good to be stringed and worn around my neck.

The simple drinking straw worked well for pitting this small batch .I must tell you, do it when you want some calming down 🙂

I did not want the cherries to become mushy so i didn't leave it on flame for long may be that is why it retained the shape till the very end .
