Luxardo Maraschino Cherries — The Original, Authentic Cocktail Cherry
Transform your drinks and desserts from ordinary to extraordinary with Luxardo Maraschino Cherries, the gold standard of cocktail garnishes trusted by bartenders and chefs worldwide. These iconic cherries are steeped in over a century of Italian craftsmanship, delivering a rich, natural flavor and luxurious texture that imitation cherries simply can’t match.
A True Taste of Italian Heritage
Luxardo has been producing their renowned cherries since 1905 in the Veneto region of Italy. Each jar holds hand-selected Marasca cherries grown in the Luxardo family’s own orchards — not just any cherry, but a proprietary variety prized for its firm bite and complex, slightly tart sweetness.
Once harvested, the cherries are candied slowly and bathed in a syrup crafted from pure Marasca cherry juice and sugar. This process results in a final product that’s 50% cherries and 50% syrup — a testament to Luxardo’s dedication to quality over shortcuts.
Unmatched Flavor and Texture
Forget the neon-red cherries floating in cheap cocktails. Luxardo Maraschino Cherries are in a class of their own:
-
Appearance: Naturally deep red to nearly black, with a glossy, luxurious sheen.
-
Texture: Plump and satisfyingly firm, never mushy.
-
Flavor: A sophisticated balance of rich, dark cherry sweetness, gentle tartness, and subtle almond and vanilla notes from the Marasca cherry’s natural stone.
Their luscious syrup is equally prized and can add depth and sweetness to a wide range of drinks and recipes.
Elevate Your Cocktails and More
These legendary cherries are an absolute must-have for both home bartenders and professionals who take their craft seriously. Use Luxardo Maraschino Cherries to garnish timeless cocktails like the Manhattan, Old Fashioned, Whiskey Sour, or Aviation. Just one cherry instantly adds a touch of elegance and authentic flavor.
Beyond the bar, these cherries shine in the kitchen:
-
Desserts: Top cheesecakes, sundaes, panna cotta, or chocolate tortes with one or two cherries and a drizzle of syrup.
-
Baking: Fold into muffins, cakes, or cookies for a burst of real cherry flavor.
-
Breakfast Treats: Spoon over pancakes, waffles, or crepes to delight the entire table.
-
Savory Touch: Experiment by adding the syrup to glazes for pork, duck, or ham.
