Description

Cherry syrup is a sweet and thick liquid made from concentrated cherry juice, sugar, and occasionally a touch of lemon or vinegar to balance its flavor. This ingredient is commonly used in baking, mixology, and to enhance desserts like ice cream, yogurt, cakes, and pancakes, providing a characteristic intense and fruity taste.

Cherry syrup originates from regions where cherries are a traditional fruit, such as Europe and North America, although today its production and consumption are widespread worldwide thanks to the globalization of cuisine. In Latin America, its use is popular for adding a special touch to various sweet preparations and beverages.

This syrup is rich in natural antioxidants derived from cherries, such as anthocyanins, which may help reduce inflammation and improve cardiovascular health. Additionally, it provides a good amount of simple sugars that offer quick energy, so it should be used in moderation.

Regarding synonyms in Spanish from Latin America, cherry syrup may also be known as cherry simple syrup or cherry honey, although "jarabe" is the most common and recognized term in most countries.
