We use to do this in college. We had to drive to WV to get the everclear. Ohio doesn't sell it.

Ahh yes, reminds me of college parties. Pineapple chunks work great also.

Re: Cherry bombs

I seen one cat on the web mixed in some of the cherry juice with 151...I guess to make it a little sweeter. After a month with the original post recipe, do the cherry's taste like cherry's or like cotton balls soaked with booze? Just curious for those who've had em.

Re: Cherry bombs

The cherry's actually taste like cherry's. You can mix in 50/50 brandy/grain alcohol. My grandmother in Italy used to make this all the time. Turns into a great cherry liquer. Very sweet but awesome. I think there is a way to make them less sweet so I will look into it and post here.

Everclear is banned here in Huntington, West Virginia, and Morgantown, West Virgnia. Basically Marshall Universit and West Virginia University. Heh. They banned it like 2 years ago, some how they think banning everclear will decrease underage drinking...

One of the best things about West Virginia is they MAKE THEIR OWN grain alcohol.

Re: Cherry bombs

Not to change the subject or thread jack but my buddies and myself used to get a big ol water melon and put a couple bottles of Everclear in it . Tastes great and really got everyone juiced up . Once we even tested it to see if it was flammable , it was pretty cool looking at night , burned for quite a while and developed a caramalized flavor also . Ah the dumb stuff kids do ! We probably would have used shine but I've never even seen it .

Re: Cherry bombs

Done these with 151 and Everclear (gotta love WI). Wasn't a big fan of them, loved giving them to our friends when they came over. Also found out that blowing fireballs was way more fun then drinking the damn stuff! If I can find any photos I will add them.

I think that is a great idea if High Octane isn't available. I bet the rum flavor would complement the cherries nicely.

Re: Cherry bombs

I put two jars into the fridge this week. Here in Texas the Everclear is 95% alcohol by volume, making it 190 proof.
